    Thing is this is nothing new. Since day dot in every league in the world it's usually the teams with the most resources who are in the better position or fighting for silverware. I'd argue that football I ln Europe is competitive as it's ever been right now.

    Anyway. The final wasn't the best. Bayern did a good job of keeping them quiet. They worked hard.

    I thought they all got their heads down to early. For the last 10 mins all the Bayern players and staff were up cheering their team on over the line. The PSG guys should have been equally trying to drive their players onto an equaliser but they all looked beat.

    Juventus, Italy.

    PSG, France.

    Bayern Munich, Germany.

    Red Bull Salzburg, Austria.

    Just a few examples. Agree the bigger clubs have always dominated but now it is increasingly becoming THE dominant club dominates in their league as resources/finances polarise to fewer and fewer clubs and more and more footballers think they played a part in winning the league when they have started twice but come on for the last 15 minutes twenty times a season when the team was 2 or 3 up already.

    Impressive defending from Bayern in the second half, they cut out so many through balls from PSG.
