Bayern Munich one step closer to their second continental treble

FC Bayern Munich is on the verge of winning their second continental treble. They will face Paris Saint-Germain, this Sunday in the UEFA Champions League final.

Bayern has been already crowned champion of German domestic league and cup. They are now just one match away to make history. They won a treble last time in the 2012-13 season. That was their last UCL win too.

Bayern beat Lyon by 3-0, courtesy of Serge Gnabry’s outstanding display. Lyon started the match very well. But couldn’t hold the momentum to beat the German champions. Serge Gnabry scored two goals in the first half.

The third goal was scored by Robert Lewandowski, who has scored 15 goals already in this season’s UCL, equalling the third-best record of all time made by Cristiano Ronaldo. He is just two goals away to be the top scorer in a season to equal the all-time record of 17 goals in a season held also by Cristiano Ronaldo.

Although in the final Bayern will surely be tested more. PSG’s front three of Neymar-Mbappe-Di Maria will ask many more questions from the Bayern defence. They showed vulnerability at the back against Lyon so PSG would surely like to exploit that area.

This is the first-ever UEFA Champions League final for Paris Saint-Germain. This will also be the last match for PSG captain Thiago Silva at the club. The whole team is ready to bid the Brazilian defender a fitting farewell with the Champions League crown. They want to end the season with the most coveted trophy.

All the big names like Lewandowski and Neymar are ready to fight with their full potential to clinch the title. Who do you think will get their hands on the trophy?
