Two triumphs in the Champions League and three in the predecessor European Cup. On Sunday, Bayern Munich can call themselves kings of Europe for the sixth time.

Paris Saint-Germain?

For them, it is a historical first title that is at stake in these contexts.

- This was the assignment when I came here. Winning would be absolutely incredible. It would be an achievement for a French club, says Mbappé, who joined PSG from Monaco three years ago.

27 years ago

In fact, no French club has gone all the way in the finest of club team tournaments since Marseille finalized Milan in 1993 and became the first club to win the Champions League.

- This is exactly why I came here. I have always said that I want to write history for my country. This is a chance. When I came here in 2017, we went through several disappointments. Now we are in the final and it shows that we have not given up, says Mbappé, according to AFP.

Despite his young age, the 21-year-old has already won the World Cup, the French league and the French Cup. At the Estadio da Luz in the Portuguese capital Lisbon, the prodigy can take home the last thing that can be won in French club team football.

Empty stands

Not even the fact that in that case it will be in the sign of the corona pandemic - in front of empty stands - would take the edge off such an experience, Mbappé says.

- Of course it feels strange to play in front of empty stands, but it is still the Champions League. You feel the intensity of the matches. It has been a very special format this year and we will remember it for a long time because of the tragedy.

The kick-off time for the Champions League final between Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich is at 21.00 on Sunday.
