---------------
Six-time winners Bayern Munich became the first team to score nine goals in a single Champions League game when they faced Dinamo Zagreb during the league phase.

Amorim's Sporting thrash City
-----------------------------
Ruben Amorim gave the perfect parting gift to Sporting CP fans as he guided the Portuguese side to a sensational 4-1 win over Manchester City.
Amorim would take over from Erik ten Hag at Manchester United just a few weeks later, but first, he condemned Pep Guardiola's side, his future rivals, to one of the lowest points of their season.

-------------------------------------------
Fans were treated to nine goals, including a first-half hat-trick, a red card at the death and a Ronald Araujo own goal as Barcelona scratched and clawed their way to a 5-4 win on the road.
However, the moment of the match came after the full-time whistle blew when Benfica boss Bruno Lage gave his players an incredible public dressing down.
Lage could be seen berating his players on the pitch as torrential rain poured down around him, capping a bizarre evening of Champions League action.

-------------------------------------------------------
Real Madrid reached the quarter-finals of the competition after a dramatic penalty shootout against bitter rivals Atletico Madrid.

Yamal's solo run against Inter
------------------------------
Despite being just 17 years old, Lamine Yamal was the star of Barcelona's semi-final against Internazionale.
His side were 2-0 down during the first leg, but the youngster got them back in the game with one of the goals of the tournament.
He skipped past several Inter defenders before curling a left-footed strike into the far corner.
Barcelona may have ultimately crashed out, but the strike signalled that Yamal had truly arrived on the world stage.

Acerbi's last-gasp equaliser
----------------------------
The semi-final between Barca and Inter will go down as one of the greatest of all time, and not just because of Yamal's brilliance.
Francesco Acerbi, 37, capped two thrilling legs of football with a stoppage-time equaliser - his first ever goal in the competition - that sent the tie to extra time with the teams locked 6-6 on aggregate.
The strike proved crucial as the Serie A side progressed to the final thanks to Davide Frattesi's winner in the 99th minute.

PSG's final tifo
----------------
Luis Enrique's nine-year-old daughter tragically died in 2019.
The PSG fans paid a moving tribute to her following their victory in Munich with a tifo that showed her and Enrique planting a PSG flag in the middle of the pitch, like they had done during his time as Barcelona manager.

Enrique lifts the Champions League
----------------------------------
PSG made history when they reached the pinnacle of European football for the first time last week.
Luis Enrique played a huge role in turning the team's fortunes around, instilling an incredible style of play that relied more on work ethic and desire than big-name stars - although they have plenty of those too.
He brought this fantastic campaign to a close by raising the trophy into the air in Munich, joining Pep Guardiola in an [exclusive club of managers](https://www.tntsports.co.uk/football/champions-league/2024-2025/luis-enrique-treble-psg-v-inter_sto23188013/story.shtml) to win the treble with two different teams.
