Paris Saint-Germain’s double goal-scoring hero Desire Doue said “a dream has become reality” after Saturday’s Champions League triumph.

The 19-year-old lit up Munich’s Allianz Arena, scoring twice and providing an assist as PSG routed Inter Milan 5-0.

“I don’t have the words,” said the French teenager.

“Thanks to the Parc (des Princes, PSG’s home stadium), thanks Paris.

“A dream has become reality. It’s just magnificent. It’s crazy, I’m so happy.
“It’s just the beginning.”

PSG have been guided to the continental crown for the first time in their history by Spanish coach Luis Enrique.

“It’s time to have a big party,” said Luis Enrique, who also won the Champions League with Barcelona 10 years ago.

“We have to make the most of this moment,” added the 55-year-old.

“I feel this connection with the players and the supporters, it’s very strong. It’s a great moment, we deserve it. We managed to control the tension.”

Unruly fans held back

Thousands of euphoric PSG fans had to be held back by a line of police they tried to rush the field in jubilation.

Police lined up in front of the PSG end of the Allianz Arena stadium at the final whistle but struggled to contain the fans for several minutes when they came down from the stands following the trophy presentation.

They did eventually manage to force them back into the stands, and PSG players had already headed back to the locker room, appearing to cut short celebrations in front of their supporters.

Players eventually made their way back to the field with the trophy after order was restored.

PSG fans dominated the occasion, drowning out Inter supporters, many of whom had left long before the final whistle after seeing their team blown away by the French champion.
