Local Algerian press was saddened by the news that the Lyon Algerian midfielder Hossam Aouar will not take part in the champions league final as "Echoroukonline" wrote "Aouar won't play CL final", as Algerians were excited about seeing the 22-year-old in the final of the most important club competition globally.
While Egyptian "Filgoal" used the headline: "One step ahead of writing a unique history, Bayern finishes Lyon and qualifies to CL final".
The article highlighted the historic campaign the Germans have had in the competition as they have won 10 out of the ten matches they have played so far which no team has ever done before on their way to the final game, with the most important game waiting for Bavarians to make an unprecedented achievement.
Indian "Sportskeeda" described Bayern as unstoppable, irresistible, and unplayable. The article praised the Bavarians for sticking to their strengths and making use of it, meanwhile mentioned that the French side should blame themselves for not being decisive enough.
