Bayern Munich beat Paris Saint-Germain to win Champions League
It was a night of joy for Bayern coach Hansi Flick, who added the Champions League to the Bundesliga after initially taking over as interim coach from sacked Niko Kovac in November.
In contrast, it was a night of bitter disappointment for PSG's two attacking superstars Neymar and Kylian Mbappe, who failed to produce their best and found themselves frustrated by Bayern keeper and man of the match Manuel Neuer when they had the best of the first-half chances.
The match went into half-time goal-less after an absorbing first period in which the French side looked more threatening with both teams coming close to scoring.Friends, It's Bayern Munich....— Olomoinfo (@Olomoinfo) August 23, 2020

In the second half, France international Coman appeared at the back post to glance home a cross from Joshua Kimmich in the 59th minute, completing a sweeping move by Bayern, who until then had been the second best side on the pitch.
Coman's strike punished PSG's wastefulness in the first half as Neymar and Kylian Mbappe both failed to beat Bayern keeper Manuel Neuer from close range while Angel di Maria and Ander Herrera also narrowly missed the target.
PSG substitute Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting missed two late opportunities to level for the French side, who are still waiting to win their first Champions League title after billions of euros of investment from the Qatar royal family.
Bayern -- who finished 11-0-0 in the Champions League this season -- became the first team to win every UCL match en route to the title and were the first unbeaten champion since Manchester United in 2007-08.
Congrats lads!
