Three-time European Cup winner Marco van Basten has blasted UEFA for what they did before the Champions League final between PSG and Inter Milan.
In a dominant first half display, Luis Enrique's PSG side went 2-0 up through goals from Achraf Hakimi and Desire Doue.
Inter, on the other hand, struggled to get themselves a foothold in the match - which is taking place eight days on from them losing the Serie A title to Antonio Conte's Napoli.

Van Basten, who won the European Cup with Inter's great rivals AC Milan, is on punditry duty for the match with Dutch TV station Ziggo Sport.
And he made his feelings on UEFA's pre-match entertainment, which saw American rock band Linkin Park perform an on-pitch concert shortly before kick-off.
That was then followed by a violinist performing a rendition of 'Seven Nation Army' by The White Stripes.

The pre-match concert has been a UEFA tradition for several years, with Dua Lipa's performance before the 2018 Champions League final between Real Madrid and Liverpool still fondly remembered by Reds fans.
But Van Basten certainly wasn't impressed with this year's spectacle.
He fumed: "The Linkin Park performance was garbage, absolutely garbage.
"It's a disgrace that UEFA allows this. This is worthless.

"It is a pity for these boys who have to prepare for the most important game of their lives. UEFA copied this from FIFA. This is ridiculous."
If he didn't like the pre-match preparations, Van Basten will have surely respected the performance of PSG at Bayern Munich's Allianz Arena.
The reigning Ligue 1 champions made it 3-0 in the second half from a superb finish from Doue, before Bradley Barcola fired over from a chance to make it 4-0 on 70 minutes.
But they did make it 4-0 minutes later through Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, with Enrique's side set to win their first ever Champions League crown after losing in the final to Bayern in 2020, under Thomas Tuchel.
