PSG’s Champions League victory enveloped an incredible football season in Europe.

Luis Enrique’s team crushed 5-0 in the Munich final, earning a historic high note, and became the biggest margin of history in a major international football showdown.

However, it is worth noting that Ajax defeated AC Milan 6-0 in the final leg of the 1974 UEFA Super Cup, but the trophy is not widely regarded as a major one.

PSG’s victory also marked a much-anticipated milestone in the era of the Champions League.

Data analyzed by Aceodds.com shows that it holds the record for the longest gap between the club’s first Champions League appearance and its first title. It’s been 31 years.

The team became the only person with seven different scorers in one Champions League match after beating Brest 7-0 on February 19th.

Inter: Longest UCL Streak without acknowledging your goals

But Inter’s 5-0 thrashing should not overshadow their extraordinary run in the final.

True to Italian great tradition, Nerazzuri set an incredible record by 539 minutes without acknowledging one goal from the start of the tournament, despite playing against top opponents like Manchester City and Arsenal.

Previous records were held by Manchester United. Manchester United have locked out opposition teams for 481 minutes that reached the final for 481 minutes in the 2010-11 season.

Barcelona: Yamal and Rafinha make history despite Semis’ upset

Barcelona did not advance to the finals, but many players broke individual records.

Starting with Rafina, the 28-year-old Brazilian matched Cristiano Ronaldo’s 2014 record, the most goal-involved in one Champions League season, thanks to an astounding 13 goals and nine assists.

It was not the only individual record set by the Catalans. Lamine Yamal, who is said to be one of the most difficult enemies to face with several players, has become the youngest footballer to face Inter at age 17 in the Champions League semi-finals at the age of 17.

It destroys previous records for Kylian Mbappe, set at the age of 18 who scored in Monaco in the 2016-17 campaign.

Real Madrid and Bayern strengthen their UCL legacy with new records

Bayern Munich and Real Madrid also enjoyed themselves.

Thomas Muller extended the record to 163 with the most appearances of single clubs during the Champions League era, and Harry Kane became the first player to score a penalty hat-trick in a match against Dinamo Zagreb in September.

In terms of appearances, Real Madrid has set a record for the competition for 28 consecutive seasons, extending their winning streak, reaching 28 consecutive knockouts.

Similarly, former manager Carlo Ancelotti, now in Brazil, extended the manager’s record of appearances to 218, reaching 124 to increase his Champions League victory record.

Meanwhile, Girona and Feynord broke the most unique goal records in four Champions League seasons, each breaking previous records for Fenerbahce’s previous three goals for the 2007-08 season.
