Paris Saint-Germain emphatically ended their Champions League drought with a record-breaking 5-0 victory over Inter Milan in Munich. Under the guidance of Spanish coach Luis Enrique, PSG’s youthful squad dismantled the Italian giants in a final that rewrote the club’s history.
The Ligue 1 champions, built around energy and ambition rather than former marquee names like Messi, Neymar, or Mbappe, dominated from the first whistle. Teenage sensation Desire Doue was the standout, netting twice and assisting Achraf Hakimi’s opener. It was a performance that showcased not only the team’s talent but their fearless mentality on the biggest stage.
Enrique, now a two-time Champions League-winning coach with different clubs, has crafted a side that blends hunger with tactical discipline. After dispatching Manchester City in the group stage and overcoming Liverpool, Aston Villa, and Arsenal in the knockouts, PSG’s path to glory was anything but easy—but they made it look effortless.
Despite their success, early odds for next season’s tournament don’t favor them. Premier League champions Liverpool are currently leading the betting markets, with Real Madrid, Arsenal, and others ranked above the new champions. However, PSG’s dominance suggests they are just getting started.
Their next challenge is the FIFA Club World Cup, where they’ll face Atletico Madrid in the United States on June 15. Given their recent form, PSG are strong contenders to add that trophy to their growing collection.
Meanwhile, British tennis continues to enjoy the rise of Jack Draper, who has powered into the fourth round of the French Open. After a straight-sets win over Brazil’s Joao Fonseca, Draper now faces Kazakhstan’s Alexander Bublik. Bublik showed resilience in his previous match by coming from two sets down to win against Alex de Minaur, setting the stage for an intriguing battle.
Draper is gaining momentum and attention, with odds shortening on a potential deep run, though heavyweights like Jannik Sinner and Alexander Zverev stand between him and the final.
Cameron Norrie’s journey at Roland Garros looks more difficult, with a fourth-round matchup against Novak Djokovic looming. The Serbian veteran, fresh off his 100th career title in Geneva, is widely expected to overpower Norrie in straight sets.
