PSG have finally got their hands on the Champions League trophy after a memorable 5-0 win over Inter Milan in Munich on Saturday night.
Luis Enrique’s side were fully deserved winners as they swept Inter aside with goals from Desire Doue, Achraf Hakimi and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.
A lot of money has been invested in PSG down the years, but they often under-achieved despite having superstars like Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe and Neymar on their books.
If anything, they seem better now that those big egos have left the club, with this younger side working harder and delivering on the biggest stage far more successfully.
PSG player ratings vs Inter Milan
Here’s a look at how each PSG player got on as they thrashed Inter…
Gianluigi Donnarumma – 6 – Superb against Arsenal in the semi-finals, the PSG goalkeeper actually had barely anything to do against Inter, not making his first save of the night until the 75th minute.
Achraf Hakimi – 8 – Scored the opening goal against his former club, and generally posed a threat all night long with a superb attacking display from right-back.
Marquinhos – 7 – A solid performance from a long-serving member of this PSG side, showing all his quality and experience.
Willian Pacho – 7 – Not the toughest game he’ll ever have, but Willian Pacho did his job well, with he and Marquinhos proving a strong pairing that were far too good for Inter.
Nuno Mendes – 7 – An unsung hero of PSG’s Champions League season, Nuno Mendes again quietly did his job perfectly tonight, providing a solid foundation to help Khvicha Kvaratskhelia on that left-hand side.
Joao Neves – 8 – A really special young midfield player who kept things ticking along like someone with far more experience and know-how at this level than he actually has.
Vitinha – 8.5 – The jewel in the crown of PSG’s midfield, Vitinha (once a Wolves flop, would you believe?!) was at the heart of all the Ligue 1 giants’ best moves, and had a particularly important hand in the opening goal.
Fabian Ruiz – 7 – Kept things simple as he often does, and fully deserves…
