Wesley Sneijder is backing Inter Milan to be the team that can finally shut down Paris Saint-Germain when they clash in the Champions League final tonight in Munich.

After years of coming up short, PSG have delivered an electric run to the final, toppling three Premier League clubs—Liverpool, Aston Villa, and Arsenal—thanks to the explosive play of stars like Ousmane Dembele and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.

Inter Milan, meanwhile, are making their second appearance in a Champions League final in three seasons, having just edged out Barcelona in a dramatic semi-final that ended 7-6 on aggregate.

Sneijder, who famously helped guide Inter to Champions League glory in 2010 under Jose Mourinho during their historic treble-winning season, believes this current Inter side is uniquely built to stop the French giants.

With the best defensive record in the tournament, the Dutch legend argues that Inter’s tactical discipline could be PSG’s undoing.

Reflecting on PSG’s path to the final, Sneijder pointed out how English teams approached the Parisians with attacking intent, leaving space that PSG capitalized on. Inter, he noted, are unlikely to make that same mistake.

According to Sneijder, Inter are comfortable sitting deep, absorbing pressure, and striking on the break—particularly down the right flank where Denzel Dumfries has been so effective. Their cohesive defending and ability to punish opponents in transition give them an edge that other teams lacked.

Although Inter narrowly missed out on the Serie A title to Napoli on the final day of the season, their full focus has been on securing European silverware.

Sneijder feels that after 15 years, this is the perfect moment for Inter to reclaim the crown. He considers them the favorites, emphasizing how the squad has been mentally preparing for this final rather than hoping for a late domestic title twist.

With the stage set in Munich and both teams fielding world-class talent, Sneijder’s confidence in Inter stems from their balance, resilience, and hunger.

While PSG’s attacking stars have dazzled all tournament, it might be Inter’s structure and savvy that tip the scale when it matters most.Wesley Sneijder is backing Inter Milan to be the team that can finally shut down Paris Saint-Germain when they clash in the Champions League final tonight in Munich.
