This victory marks Luis Enrique’s second career treble, after achieving his first with Barcelona in 2015.
He becomes only the second manager in history, after Pep Guardiola, to win the treble with two different clubs.
The accomplishment cements his status as one of the most tactically gifted coaches in European football.

At just 19 years old, Désiré Doué delivered a sensational performance in the final, scoring twice and providing an assist.
He became the youngest player in history to both score and assist in a Champions League Final.
His outstanding display was key to PSG’s dominant 5-0 win over Inter Milan.

While PSG celebrated their victory in Munich, the people of Marseille responded by ignoring the match.
Many locals wore Inter Milan jerseys and replayed Marseille’s 1993 UCL final win over AC Milan instead.
Their message was clear: “Forever the first” – highlighting Marseille's status as the first and only French team (until now) to win the Champions League.

Celebrations across France turned chaotic after PSG's win.
Two people died, 192 were injured, and over 500 were arrested during nationwide riots.
Incidents included arson, attacks on police, and violent street clashes.
The French Minister of the Interior condemned the violence and promised strict legal action against rioters.
