French Champions Paris Saint-Germain on Saturday, beat Arsenal to retain their Champions League crown.
PSG defeated Arsenal 4-3 on penalties following a 1-1 draw after extra time in Budapest. Premier League Champions, Arsenal, took an early lead through Kai Havertz, but PSG levelled in the second half with an Ousmane Dembélé penalty before holding their nerve in the shootout.
The match was not without controversy. PSG players appealed for a handball penalty in the first half after the ball struck Bukayo Saka’s arm inside the box, but referee Daniel Siebert waved play on and VAR did not intervene. The incident sparked debate among fans and pundits, though officials deemed it accidental and not worthy of a spot-kick.
The victory gives PSG back-to-back Champions League crowns under Luis Enrique, further cementing the French club’s growing dominance in European football.
