Who said what: Football world reacts to Bayern Munich's historic Champions League triumph
Bayern Munich were crowned Champions of Europe for the sixth time in their illustrious history, as they secured a hard-fought 1-0 victory against Paris Saint-Germain at the Estadio da Luz.
In what proved to be a captivating encounter between two outstanding teams, the Bavarian giants emerged victorious and completed the treble, after winning the Bundesliga and the DfB Pokal earlier this season.
Having reached their first UEFA Champions League final, PSG took their time to settle into the game and missed their fair share of chances to break the deadlock. Bayern Munich goalkeeper Manuel Neuer was in stunning form between the sticks, as he made a string of top-class saves to keep his side in the game.
Keylor Navas was also in excellent form for his side but was powerless from stopping Kingsley Coman in the second half. The Frenchman's strike against his former team was the solitary goal of the game, as Bayern held on to record a victory.
The PSG players looked dejected at the full-time whistle, as they fell desperately short of the trophy that they've coveted for well over a decade now. Neymar was visibly distraught and was inconsolable after the game, as videos emerged of the Brazilian star in tears in the wake of the defeat.
However, PSG president Nasser Al Khelaïfi's rallying cry after the game was an important message for fans across the world. The Qatari businessman reiterated that the Parisian giants will get their hands on the Champions League and added that PSG feel stronger than ever to make an impact in Europe.
"We're sad, but we haven't forgotten all the positive things this season. I'm very proud of my players anyway, we had a great season, a great tournament, nobody thought we were going to reach the final."
"We did everything to win. It's football, you have to accept it. Tonight, we believe in it even more than before: we want to win the Champions League. I want everyone to keep their heads up. "
Thomas Tuchel also had his say after the game, as the German tactician conceded that PSG weren't clinical enough on the night.
"I had the feeling before, maybe the first goal decides this match. We needed this boost to feel more free. We showed a big fight but they scored and it was decisive. We showed the attitude necessary to win. We were not lucky enough."
The former Borussia Dortmund coach also joked that he'd love for Lionel Messi to join PSG in the upcoming transfer window and affirmed that the club will begin preparations for the forthcoming season shortly.
“He [Messi] is very welcome but we lost Edinson Cavani and Thomas Meunier. We lose Thiago Silva. Which coach says no to Messi? We decided not to talk about transfers. We will sit together in the next days. I think Messi finishes his career at Barcelona.”
Several other figures from both sides also had their say after the game, as Bayern Munich capped off a monumental season by getting their hands on club football's biggest prize.
