24 minutes and it was over. Real Madrid's nightmare in the Champions League! They won't be playing for the title.
The club from the French capital imposed their own terms from the start of Wednesday's match, playing aggressively and with great intensity. In the 4th and 5th minutes, Thibaut Courtois had to save his team from dangerous shots from Fabian Ruiz and Ousmane Dembele.
Moments later, however, the Belgian was helpless. First, a poor clearance from Raul Asencio put the ball into the hands of Dembele, who drew the goalkeeper and laid it off to Ruiz. Three minutes later, another mistake, this time by Ruediger, left Dembele one-on-one with Courtois, and after nine minutes, Luis Enrique's side were already 2-0 up.
Three quick blows! Real Madrid outclassed by PSGIn the 23rd minute, things became more dangerous at the other end of the pitch when Kylian Mbappe charged down the left wing. The Frenchman's shot was blocked and the ball fell to Gianluigi Donnarumma. In response, the Parisians launched a swift attack and... scored another goal! Achraf Hakimi laid the ball off to Fabian Ruiz, who was able to celebrate a double.
Late in the first half, Courtois once again had to prove himself. First, he parried Nuno Mendes' shot and then kept out Dembele. Desire Doue found the back of the net shortly after the break, but Marciniak disallowed the goal for 4-0 because the young striker was slightly offside.
A helpless Real Madrid were unable to muster any response. In the 85th minute, Madrid had a chance to open the scoring, but Eder Militao headed a corner kick from Luka Modrić wide. Moments later, the same player found the back of the net, but Donnarumma was unfazed.
The Champions League Grand Final! Paris Saint-Germain vs. ChelseaThe missed opportunities almost immediately paid off for the Spanish runners-up. In the 87th minute, Goncalo Ramos beat Courtis, sealing a commanding and impressive victory for PSG, who will face Chelsea in the 2025 Club World Cup final on July 13th at 9:00 PM. The Blues defeated Brazilian side Fluminense 2-0 in the semifinals.
