The final took place against the context of Uefa’s continuing tensions with Fifa and, most pertinent, the imminent rebirth of the Club World Cup. Whether PSG are the planet’s most becoming football institution may depend on where your moral compass points but, about 26 hours after the Uefa president’s speech, they proved beyond any doubt that their team sit above everyone. ...
