Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich are the last two teams left standing in what has been an unorthodox UEFA Champions League season. The two will go head-to-head for the championship on Sunday, August 23. The game will air on CBS Sports Network and will also stream live on CBS All Access beginning at 3 p.m. ET.
With 2020 being the 50th anniversary of Paris Saint-Germain’s founding, walking away with the championship trophy would only sweeten the deal and PSG has the right team to do it. Currently at the helm of the team is coach Thomas Tuchel, who joined the club in 2018. Since his tenure began, the team has won two Ligue 1 titles and added the French Cup and League Cup this season, according to UEFA.com. The team has also won the Trophée des Champions and if they manage to pull off a W on Sunday, Tuchel walks away with a historic sweep of five trophies.
PSG also boasts the talents of Neymar Jr., who comes into the final injury-free for the first time since he joined the team back in 2017. Neymar’s presence has been evidently influential on the field, pushing the team “with his dribbling, passing, energy and hunger,” UEFA.com noted.
Bayern Munich comes into the final with a 19-match winning streak. Though they have always been fan favorites, the team lost some big players last summer and switched coaches in November. However, ever since Hans-Dieter Flick took over from Niko Kovač, the team has excelled, winning ten out of ten matches with 42 goals scored in the process, UEFA reports.
Bayer is fueled by the talents of Robert Lewandowski, who has come away with a season’s best of 15 goals and is only two away from catching Cristiano Ronaldo’s UEFA Champions League record of 17.
