The final whistle has blown on the 2025 UEFA Champions League Final, held last Saturday, May 31st, where Paris Saint-Germain secured a resounding 5-0 victory over Inter Milan at Wembley. While PSG celebrates a historic triumph, the match itself has sparked a lively debate among fans, with some highly critical comments circulating in the aftermath.
“One of the Most Useless Champions League Finales of the Decade 😌”
This biting commentary perfectly encapsulates the sentiment of many viewers. A 5-0 scoreline in a Champions League final, while a dream for the winning side, often signifies a heavily one-sided contest that lacks the tension, competitive ebb-and-flow, and dramatic uncertainty expected from football’s ultimate club showdown. Goals from Hakimi, a brace from Doué, Kvaratskhella, and Mayulu painted a picture of PSG’s dominance from early on.
For a neutral, a final where one team so thoroughly overwhelms another can indeed feel “useless” in terms of a thrilling spectacle, leaving many feeling short-changed by the lack of a genuine contest.

PSG’s Domestic Dominance Meets European Glory
The comment, “If the owners of this PSG club will retain these set of players, that played tonight, the club will definitely RETAIN that League trophy season,” takes on new meaning in light of PSG’s dominant victory.
For years, PSG has faced the criticism of being a “domestic giant” unable to translate their overwhelming Ligue 1 success into European glory. Tonight’s performance, a ruthless 5-0 dismantling of a storied European club like Inter Milan, provides a powerful rebuttal to that narrative. This win suggests that the current PSG squad has not only mastered their domestic league but has finally matured and coalesced into a truly elite European force. The comment now sounds less like a hypothetical and more like an affirmation: if they can perform at this level, their domestic crown is indeed safe, and their European aspirations have been gloriously fulfilled.
Inter Milan’s Puzzling Performance: “Very sluggish and playing non commitment football”
The most perplexing aspect for many revolves around Inter Milan’s display. The question, “How did this Inter Milan team beat F. C .Barcelona? Very sluggish and playing non commitment football,” hits hard after a 5-0 defeat. Inter Milan’s journey to the final would have involved overcoming formidable opponents, including a strong Barcelona side (perhaps in the group stage or earlier knockouts). Their tactical discipline, defensive solidity, and opportunistic attacking would have been key. However, the final’s scoreline and your description of their play suggest a dramatic drop in performance. To be “sluggish” and show “non-commitment” on the biggest stage is anathema to what is required. It raises questions about their mental preparedness, tactical approach, or simply a night where nothing went right against a rampant PSG, leaving fans bewildered by the stark contrast between their earlier formidable performances and this limp final showing.
“Well it’s football, Anything can happen, but this final is not UEFA standard !!”
This widely shared sentiment perfectly encapsulates the frustration. The first part, “Well it’s football, Anything can happen,” is a common adage acknowledging the sport’s unpredictability. Indeed, the mere fact that Inter Milan made it to the final, or that PSG could finally deliver such a dominant performance, reinforces this.
However, the second part, “but this final is not UEFA standard!!”, is a damning indictment. Despite the official UEFA stamp, the spirit of the comment implies that a 5-0 one-sided affair, particularly if one team appeared lethargic, doesn’t meet the expected competitive quality and entertainment value of Europe’s premier club competition. Fans anticipate a nail-biting, end-to-end battle between two equally matched titans. When the reality is a procession, even if executed brilliantly by the winning side, the final can feel like a missed opportunity for the spectacle it’s supposed to be.
The 2025 Champions League Final will be etched into PSG’s history as their crowning moment. For Inter Milan, it will be a painful reminder of a night where they simply couldn’t find their footing. And for many neutral fans, it will stand as a potent example of how even the biggest games can sometimes deliver a result, but not necessarily the drama or competitive intensity that defines a truly memorable final.
