After so many years... Last year already, in 2025, Paris fans exploded with joy, one day late, for their first Ligue des Champions, a historic moment for the capital club. A long-awaited trophy after years of disappointment for the players... but Luis Enrique arrived, bringing with him renewed hope and a refreshed squad, ready to fight for its teammates. And it paid off, as Paris Saint-Germain secured its second Champions League, two years in a row, this Saturday May 30, 2026!
We had to wait a long time, but this stretch is turning into a dream run for the fans, who are witnessing their beloved club lift the European Cup twice in a row, a feat only a handful of clubs have ever achieved. Last season, PSG crushed Inter Milan 5-0. This time, the English side Arsenal could not withstand the Parisian onslaught, as a grueling match ultimately spilled into a sensational penalty shootout.
As a reminder, a back-to-back Champions League title remains a rare feat. PSG now sits in an exclusive club as Real Madrid dominates with a three-peat from 2016 to 2018 under Zidane. That achievement is the only one in the modern era; to find others, you have to go much further back: AC Milan in 1989-1990, Nottingham Forest in 1979-1980, Liverpool in 1977-1978, Bayern Munich in 1974-1976, Ajax in 1971-1973, Inter Milan in 1964-1965, and Benfica in 1961-1962.
