Inter and PSG are ready to take the field at Munich’s stadium in the UEFA Champions League final.
Both teams have announced their starting elevens, with no surprises or shocks in the selections. However, one fascinating fact caught the eye of statistical portal Opta Joe.
The average age of PSG’s starting lineup this evening is 25 years and 96 days, which is five years and 146 days younger than Inter’s (30 years and 242 days). Notably, this marks the largest age gap ever recorded between two starting XIs in a UEFA Champions League final.
It’s worth noting that before the match, an unpleasant incident unfolded in the Munich subway. Police prevented a mass brawl between fans of the French and Italian clubs and were forced to use tear gas. At this time, one injury has been reported.
