The Athletic FC welcome to the Athletic FC podcast with me, IO Akim Walere. Paris Saint Germain are through to their second successive Champions League final. Luis Enrique will be aiming to win his third European cup as a manager, so is he PSG's biggest star? Okay, joining us for this one from the Athletic, we have our German football correspondent Seb Stafford Blois, who was at the Allianz arena for us last night. And also Tom Williams, author of vavwum the Modern History of French Football. All right, after last week's 54 thriller in Paris, a 1 all draw in Munich Sens Paris St Germain to Budapest to face Arsenal in the Champions League final. Seb after that first round match I was expecting a lot of spice. Not so spicy, but perhaps a bit more incident in a different way.

Yeah, it's certainly a really engaging game. Iu, there was a lot of acrimony certainly at full time during the game too. A lot of the Munich supporters were pretty unhappy with the standard, the refereeing and some of the contentious decisions. This was really engaging, though. I really, I didn't enjoy the game. I was hoping for Bayern to make it through to Budapest. I was so, so impressed with what PSG were able to do without the ball, though, especially in their own defensive third. They really, really limited Bayern's chance creation in a way that I haven't seen any team do for a really, really long time, especially this Bayern team this season, who are so good at creating chances, who have so many different threats. Psg, there's a wider context this game. There are some other incidents to discuss clearly, but the headline, PSG Magnificent.
