Will Paris Saint-Germain finally get their hands on the Champions League or will Inter Milan claim a fourth European crown? Follow all the action from the showdown in Munich
Lautaro Martinez: will 'El Toro' light up the final?
PSG take on Inter Milan tonight in the Champions League final as Luis Enrique bids to finally deliver the European crown to Paris.
The French giants’ only European trophy came when they won the 1996 Cup Winners’ Cup, and the Champions League has been the stated goal ever since the Qatari buyout in 2011. They came close in 2020, losing to Bayern Munich in the final, and a vibrant young side led by their passionate Spanish manager are determined to go one step further here in Munich.
Standing in PSG’s way are Simone Inzaghi’s Inter Milan side who dramatically knocked out Barcelona in the semi-finals. Inter, who lifted the European Cup in 1964, 1965 and 2010, also have unfinished business in this competition after defeat by Manchester City in the final two years ago.
Who will be crowned the new kings of Europe?

Inter out to avenge 2023 heartbreak
Inter Milan are determined to avenge their 2023 Champions League final loss, though manager Simone Inzaghi warned on Friday against letting determination become obsession against Paris St Germain in this year's final.
While Inter's domestic campaign ended trophyless, in Europe, Inzaghi and his players are desperate to banish the ghosts of Istanbul and their defeat to Manchester City, but they will not let their resolve turn into fixation ahead of tonight’s showdown in Munich.
"I have seen determination and not the obsession that shouldn't be there," Inzaghi told reporters.
"Instead, there should be the right concentration and determination, and this is what the guys have shown me in these days.
"I asked during the week for concentration and determination, but not obsession, we must be free, free of mind in preparing in the best possible way."

PSG hoping to battle through trauma
The terms “Champions League final” and “Munich” do not spark happy thoughts for PSG when used in the same sentence.
PSG failed to win Europe’s most coveted prize at their previous time of asking, losing to Bayern Munich in an echoey final in 2020.
Five years on, they play at the home of their heartbreakers as they stand within touching distance of their holy grail.

Are the 'best team' in the Champions League... not in the final?
Mikel Arteta will certainly believe so!
Despite crashing out to finallists PSG in the previous round, the Arsenal boss is convinced that his side was a level above the competition.
“I don't think there's been a better team [than Arsenal] in the competition from what I have seen, but we are out,” Arteta told TNT Sports after the semi-final defeat in Paris.
He later reiterated his claim, saying: “100 percent. Watching it back, watching the stats. It's very clear but its not about the winning probability, it's about making it count.”
Was this pride, arrogance or just plain delusion? Miguel Delaney had his say:
