The stage is set at the Allianz Arena for one of the most anticipated finals in recent years, with both clubs aiming to end long waits for European glory.<\/p><p>For PSG, it&rsquo;s another shot at redemption after years of heartbreak in Europe&rsquo;s top club competition. Luis Enrique&rsquo;s side have been ruthless on their road to the final, eliminating a trio of Premier League sides &ndash; Liverpool, Aston Villa, and Arsenal. The French champions appear to have peaked at just the right time and now have a golden opportunity to finally lift the elusive UEFA Champions League trophy.<\/p><p>Meanwhile, Inter Milan come into the final off the back of an unforgettable semi-final tie against Barcelona. After an exhilarating pair of 3-3 draws, Davide Frattesi emerged as the hero in extra time to book Inter&rsquo;s place in the final. With three Champions League trophies to their name already, the Nerazzurri will be aiming to add another star to their badge.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">&#128205; Munich<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/UCLfinal?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>#UCLfinal<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Qyx7j6Foxk\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/Qyx7j6Foxk<\/a><\/p>&mdash; UEFA Champions League (@ChampionsLeague) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ChampionsLeague\/status\/1928015456738160790?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>May 29, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>But before we witness a new champion crowned this weekend, let&rsquo;s take a look back at who won the UEFA Champions League last year and how.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Champions League 2023&ndash;24 Final &ndash; Who Won It Last Year?<\/h2><p>In the 2023&ndash;24 campaign, Real Madrid once again showcased their unmatched mastery of the Champions League as they lifted the trophy for a record-extending 15th time. Los Blancos edged past Borussia Dortmund 2-0 at Wembley Stadium in the final.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">HALA MADRID! &#128079;<br><br>Real Madrid defeats Dortmund and wins Champions League for the FIFTEENTH TIME &#127942; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/6zhB10GIhI\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/6zhB10GIhI<\/a><\/p>&mdash; FOX Soccer (@FOXSoccer) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FOXSoccer\/status\/1797009722471813526?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>June 1, 2024<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>The first half saw Dortmund take the game to the Spanish giants. Karim Adeyemi had two huge chances to score and Niclas Fullkrug struck the post, but Dortmund couldn&rsquo;t find the breakthrough. And when you&rsquo;re up against Real Madrid in a final, wasted chances often come back to haunt you.<\/p><p>And so they did. Madrid, known for their composure and ruthlessness in the latter stages of Champions League encounters, came alive late in the game. Dani Carvajal opened the scoring in the 74th minute with a glancing header before Vinicius Jr. sealed the deal in the 83rd minute after being set up by Jude Bellingham.<\/p><p>Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti won the competition for a record fifth time as manager while long-serving legends Toni Kroos, Luka Modric, Carvajal, and Nacho all lifted their sixth Champions League title. The performance of goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois was crucial as he made several key saves.<\/p><p>For Borussia Dortmund, it was a night of heartbreak as it was their second UCL final loss at Wembley. They also fell to Bayern Munich in 2013 at the same venue. Despite a valiant effort and superb support from their fans, Edin Terzic&rsquo;s side simply couldn&rsquo;t convert their dominance into goals.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Borussia Dortmund 0-2 Real Madrid | HIGHLIGHTS | Champions League final 2023\/24\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/GgKIhlyjX2w?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n<div class=\"mm-layout mm-layout-type-post mm-layout-slot4\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Before we witness a new champion crowned this weekend, let\u2019s take a look back at who won the UEFA Champions League last year and how.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":32,"featured_media":58575,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_mux_skip_reasons":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[4038],"tags":[4178,4177,5601,4240,3909,3904],"class_list":["post-58570","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-soccer","tag-borussia-dortmund","tag-champions-league","tag-champions-league-final","tag-inter-milan","tag-psg","tag-real-madrid"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Champions League 2023&ndash;24 Final &ndash; Who Won It Last Year?
