        Bayern Munich players prepare for the Champions League semi-finals a day after the big 2: 8 over Barcelona (Bayern Munich's Twitter account)

        It took a long time and special efforts were required for this to happen, but tomorrow (Sunday, 22:00, Sport 5) the annual highlight of world football will come, when Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain face each other in the Champions League final.

        The Stadium of Light in Lisbon will host the giant duel, which Bayern will reach as an absolute favorite despite the star battery opposite. The Enzy Flick team, which has not lost in its last 29 games and defeated all its rivals on the way to the final, is 90 minutes away from Treble. A win would give her the title for the sixth time and elevate her to third place along with Liverpool in the table of record winners.

        In Germany it was estimated that Enzy Flick would not make any changes to the squad he started in the last three games, in which he demonstrated exceptional dominance. Jerome Boateng, who was replaced in the semi-final against Lyon following a muscle injury, is expected to be fit after training last night and is set to start. At the same time, in Germany it is claimed that Benjamin Favre, who is also recovering from an injury, may start as a stopper instead of Boateng.

        Bayern Munich defender Yuzua Kimish said ahead of the game: "When you play at club level there is no greater respect. As a child you are always happy to watch the Champions League. Unfortunately the Champions League is played in empty stadiums, but this is a great opportunity we want to take advantage of tomorrow. After a few tries, but we want to do it on the first try and give everything to do it. The Champions League anthem is really magical when you're on the grass and we feel it's something special. In my fifth season here we finally reached the final and now we want to win. There will be a balanced game. Between two high-level teams that deserve to play in the final. " Kimish was asked about his team's high defensive line and said: "We still don't know what the squad will be, but I think I will play as a right-back. I will probably meet Neymar and Ambape, who are great and very fast, but I don't think we will sit back and play too deep in defense."

        Bayern Munich coach Hansie Flick : "In our games in the last ten months we have always tried to impose our style on the opponent and always played with a high defensive line and ended up getting the results that way, so we will not change too much. Obviously there were a lot of areas behind our defensive line. "The important thing is that we can press the opponent when we hold the ball. We also have to make sure that we cover the whole court with the ball behind our defensive line."

        Paris Saint-Germain striker Killian Ambape said: "That's why I joined the club. I always said I wanted to write the history of French football and I have another chance to do so. Since joining in 2017 I have experienced a number of disappointments, now we are in the final and it shows we have not given up "It would be a prize if we could win this competition with a French team, that's been my mission since I joined." Ambape commented on his return after the injury and said: "As the days go by I feel better. The fact that I was able to play in the semi-finals helped me a lot even though I was physically a bit rusty."

        Ambape referred to a meeting with Bayern Munich goalkeeper Manuel Neuer: "Neuer is one of the greatest goalkeepers in history. I have always dreamed of facing the best. When you want to be the best, you have to beat the best. We are against a great team and we have to show determination, but also play Our game. Obviously it's weird to play in an empty stadium, we would very much like to play in front of our fans, but we know they will cheer wherever they are. You can feel the tension, everyone wants to win the title. It's a different format, but one to remember. And the Champions League will be remembered in history. "

        The game will also call for a German derby on the lines: on the one hand the Enzy Flick, on the other hand Thomas Tuchel. Yogi Lev, the coach of the German national team and the one who educated Flick as an assistant in the past, has a clear preference.

        "I have a special friendship and a special connection with Hanzi, so I keep his fingers crossed for him. Sure Thomas (Tuchel) would not like to see me celebrate, but I pray that Bayern and Hanzi will win," he said today. "They both deserve to win. Hanzi does a wonderful job at Bayern, but Thomas also deserves the title. He made PSG exceptionally flexible tactically, and helped her play very attractive football."

        On the other hand, PSG will come into the game with less pressure. Thomas Tuchel's team appears for the first time in the Champions League final and was not as predatory as its rival on the way to the final in Lisbon. Tuchel is expected to make one change in the squad, with Marco Verratti recovering from an injury returning at the expense of Andrew Pardes. Kaylor Navas has trained and is likely to return to the crossbar after Sergio Rico opened in the semi-finals.
