French champions, Paris Saint Germain is set to appear in its first ever UEFA Champions League finals.

Thomas Tuchel led PSG qualified at the expense of German underdogs Leipzig, whose manager Julian Nagelsmann was an understudy to the PSG boss at Ausburg. The semi-final tie ended 3-0 at Lisbon, Portugal.

Defender Marquinhos headed PSG into the lead in the 13th minute before Di Maria added the second.

Bernat gave the French the third goal in a game they largely dominated.

They will play the winners between Bayern Munich and Lyon on Saturday.
