In the latest edition of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) chats to author, Dan Williamson, about his new book 'If I Hadnt Seen Such Riches' which chronicles our 1990/91 European Cup Winners Cup victory, which is a trip down memory lane for those old enough to remember it and a vital history lesson for those who don't.
Now come on PSG and put 5 past this awful, dull Arsenal side!
PSG have managed this game really well. That early goal was crucial. Bayern were playing catch up anyway, but that early goal destabilised them completely. I felt that Bayern overworked the ball too much tonight and should have worked the ball quicker. They seemed reluctant to shoot when they got into the final third and needed to be more incisive. The attackers were poor.
Enrique outplayed Kompany, PSG are very strong candidate for a CL double..
Why are PSG players celebrating like they've won the trophy??? So weird...
Too little too late, not enough precision in attack and a shit ref, i stand by that, congrats to PSG
Sticking to their principles la.
Yep. The ball can't have been in play for more than 2 mins in total through that added time
Great game and a coach like Lucho and a plater like Krava deserves another Cup
I'm sure people dissatisfied with the first leg will be happy now, PSG defended their lead quite well and deservedly go through. Gotta say Olise was quite ineffective. I think his team thought so too, seeing how they almost exclusively attacked from the left in the second half.
Looked a lot like Arsenal PSG last year. Kept them at arms length all game.
Why are they celebrating so much? Losers.
think Bayern was on a quadruple?
Don't get the love here for sportswashers. Arsenal over them a million times.
Madness that they're allowed to do all this.
At least they're not releasing fireworks and sacrificing goats
Poor show from Bayern fans tonight.
No
Pacho MOTM makes sense as well.
On another front , impressive to have gone two whole PSG - Bayern games in a row without red cards.

Thought Olise was really poor tonight. Thought Kane was pretty bad too despite the late consolation. I wonder if the lack of any sort of completion domestically affects Bayern a bit more.
What's with players presumably staring at the fans after they've lost? Saw Chelsea players do this and now Bayern. No clapping no real acknowledgement of the fans - just standing there.
I’m surprised to see so many things thrown from the stands. I always thought Germans were classy fans.
Germans are just bad losers
I mean, they’re in the final, having won it last year, it would be weird if they weren’t a strong candidate!
Olise didn't show up at all, which is weird considering how good he was in the first leg
Diaz was still pretty good, just felt like he was up against it on his own
Over to you now PSG. Don’t let the unthinkable happen.
Because they basically have. Could be worse they could be celebrating a corner like they’ve won a trophy.
They actually have won the trophy technically though
Because that was the real final, after they dispatch your lot in a no fuss match it won't feel that challenging.
Are Bayern stupid? Why didn't they just score earlier?
Aargh, thought commentator said something abou that
Because they are about to win a 2nd CL trophy in 2 years
How can I make this about me?
I don't want PSG to defend the CL or get another treble (they must have their domestic cup in the pocket?), but Artetaball cannot prevail.
Kompany to get the sack
The entire match I was thinking how frustrating it would be as a fan to watch your striker closer to the halfway line than inside the box. And then he scored one inside the box. This version of Kane is still very clinical but I am sure defenders would prefer to play against him than someone like Haaland who poses a constant threat.
Felt like a few of the decisions not going their way (especially after that handball in particular), really threw them off.
PSG are a complete team. They can play against low blocks, they can control the midfield, set the tempo and control the game, they can play on the counter and they can also defend very well. That's the work of a great coach that is Luis Enrique.
We only have one domestic cup.
