Rio Ferdinand didn't hold back when assessing the Champions League final demolition job that saw "PSG" crush "Inter" 5-0. The former Manchester United defender described the match as one of the most one-sided finals he's ever witnessed.
"Inter were given a proper beating - they looked like a team that had lost their pace and youth. PSG dominated in every phase of the game, pressed strongly and literally suffocated their opponent. They came out with a killer mentality and started applying pressure from the first minutes," Ferdinand stated.
The ex-England international seemed genuinely shocked by the total dominance displayed by the Parisian side on football's biggest club stage. "PSG" completely outclassed their Italian opponents, imposing their game from kickoff to final whistle.
Interestingly, Ferdinand couldn't recall seeing such a one-sided affair at this level before. "It was an astonishing game, especially considering it's a Champions League final. I don't think I've ever seen such one-sided dominance at this stage," he added.
By the way, the comprehensive nature of the victory clearly impressed the 45-year-old pundit. According to Statbet analysis, this 5-0 result marks one of the most lopsided scorelines in Champions League final history.
The report also mentioned that Luis Enrique, "PSG's" coach, had already identified a player he believes deserves the Ballon d'Or - presumably from his triumphant squad. Who could blame him after such a commanding performance?
