Paris St-Germain vs Bayern Munich - Preview
After four thrilling quarter-finals, the upsets stopped at the last-four stage in the Champions League, setting up Sunday’s final between Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain in Lisbon.
Bayern, five-times winners, are back in the final for the first time since 2013 after ending a streak of four losses in the semi-final stage with Wednesday's comfortable 3-0 win over Lyon.
PSG have reached the final for the first time, having struggled to translate their dominance of the French league into a real challenge in Europe until wins in Lisbon over Atalanta and RB Leipzig secured their place.
For the first time since 1998, the Champions League final will feature two teams who entered the competition as domestic champions, a throwback to the days of the old European Cup when only a country's title winners were allowed to enter.
