‎PSG Retain European Crown After Penalty Drama Denies Arsenal Historic Double

‎Paris Saint-Germain retained the UEFA Champions League title after defeating Arsenal 4-3 on penalties following a 1-1 draw in Budapest, becoming only the second club in the Champions League era to successfully defend the competition. The result extends PSG's dominance at the summit of European football, while denying Arsenal a historic league and European double as well as a first Champions League title in the club's history.

‎Arsenal made the perfect start to the final when Kai Havertz opened the scoring after just six minutes. Marquinhos' attempted clearance ricocheted into the German's path, allowing him to drive into the penalty area before finishing emphatically beyond Matvey Safonov from a tight angle.
