Eyes on Lisbon as PSG, Bayern Munich battle in Champions League final

Attention of football fans across the globe will be on the Estádio do Sport Lisboa e Benfica in Lisbon, Portugal, tomorrow for another exciting moment of soccer, as the final of the 2020 UEFA Champions League holds.

The venue also known as the Estádio da Luz (Stadium of Light), the home of 37-time Portuguese champions, Benfica, was rebuilt to host games (including the final) of UEFA EURO 2004, and also staged the 2014 UEFA Champions League final, in which Real Madrid beat city rivals Atlético 4-1 after extra time to become European champions for a tenth time.

It promises to be an epic showdown between French and German continental heavyweights, Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich.

The historical final is the 65th season of Europe’s premier club football tournament organised by UEFA, and the 28th season since it was renamed from the European Champion Clubs’ Cup to the UEFA Champions League. (Guardian)
