It will be only the fourth time in the past 20 seasons that the Premier League will not have a finalist in either competition.
Great news. A few knocked off their rich and cocky perches eh?

They wouldn't be so commanding in a European breakaway league, Swannie.

Borussia Dortmund produced a fine away performance to beat Paris St-Germain and reach their first Champions League final since 2013.

Dortmund held a 1-0 advantage following the first leg of the semi-final and doubled their lead when Mats Hummels was left unmarked five yards out to head in from Julian Brandt's left-wing corner.

Dortmund will face the winners of tonight's semi-final, either Real Madrid or Bayern Munich.

Is Mbappe ever going to reach the hype?

No Champions League medals

No Ballon d'Or medals

At the same age Ronaldo had one of each.

Haaland has a Champions League at 23.

Messi had 3 of each at the same age Mbappe is now.

Is Mbappe in danger of becoming a Neymar?

Maybe, he still has age on his side though.

Now he’s leaving, probably.

PSG head a league that’s at best a mid to lower PL level, imo.

Would prefer Real Madrid to win the whole thing as i have always liked them. But if its to be an all German final then fingers crossed that Bayern Munich win it, simply because i feel Harry Kane deserves to be picking up silverware. He has scored golas for fun and had nothing to show for it.

Still not entirely sure why Ferdinand thought this would make him look good? :lol:

What a terrible decision Bayern`s manager made taking off the players he did near the end of the game. Cost them the game.
