One Last Mission: PSG Sweep Up French Cup Ahead of Champions League Final
Paris Saint-Germain completed their domestic clean sweep by lifting the Coupe de France after a dominant 3-0 victory over Reims in the final. Already crowned Ligue 1 champions and Trophée des Champions holders, the Parisians now turn their full focus to the ultimate prize — the UEFA Champions League.
There was barely a hint of drama at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy, as Bradley Barcola struck twice in quick succession, netting in the 16th and 19th minutes to put PSG firmly in control. Just before half-time, Achraf Hakimi added a third to all but seal the result before the teams even headed into the dressing room.
Reims, facing their biggest match in recent memory, simply couldn’t handle the firepower and precision of Luis Enrique’s side. With the scoreline unchanging in the second half, PSG calmly saw out the win and lifted their 15th French Cup title.
Next up, the season-defining showdown: PSG vs Inter Milan in the Champions League Final, scheduled for May 31st at the Allianz Arena in Munich. With domestic duties now complete, all eyes in Paris are on that elusive European crown.
