Bayern Munich beat Paris Saint-Germain 1-0 to clinch the Champions League for a sixth time.

Only Real Madrid (13) and AC Milan (7) have been crowned champions on more occasions.

Kingsley Coman's goal in the 59th minute made the difference for the German side, which also sealed a treble, thanks to the Bundesliga and German Cup trophies it won earlier in the season.

The final was played in Lisbon behind closed doors.

Bayern are the first team in European Cup/Champions League history to win every game en route to the title (11 wins).
