Bayern Munich overcame Paris St-Germain in a tightly contested Champions League final in Lisbon to claim the crown for the sixth time.

Bayern thoroughly won their sixth victory in this competition, an all-consuming machine that graphically displayed that they could dominate teams with defensive prowess but also exhibited the strength, resolve and organisation to frustrate PSG‘s defensive golden boys Mbappe and Neymar.

And huge credit must go to coach Flick, who has guided Bayern to 21 successive victories, reviving and inspiring Bayern after emerging from the shadows when Kovac was sacked in November and the club in crisis.

Bayern also relied heavily on one of the club ‘s biggest success leaders, keeper Neuer, who was at his sublime peak to stand alongside Neymar in those vital first-half duels and make the saves that made such an immense contribution to the triumph.
