Many fans found themselves watching a previous encounter of PSG and Bayern instead of the 2019-20 Champions League final played between the two teams.

Bayern Munich defeated Paris Saint-Germain with a single goal in the final of the Champions League in Lisbon at Estádio da Luz on Sunday night.

It was the culmination of a long season that saw the end stages of the European competition postponed due to the spread of coronavirus.

With viewers looking for a way to watch the game online by fair means or foul, thousands turned to a live stream they found on YouTube.

Unfortunately it was showing a group-stage clash involving the two sides that was played back in 2017.

News of the viewer numbers quickly spread across social media as others continued with the present-day match.
