PSG crowned UEFA Champions League champions

  • Paris Saint-Germain defeated Arsenal 4-3 on penalties to retain the Champions League title at the Puskás Arena in Budapest on Saturday, securing back-to-back European crowns.
  • Arsenal led early through Kai Havertz's sixth-minute goal, but Ousmane Dembélé equalized with a 65th-minute penalty, forcing the final into extra time after regulation ended scoreless.
  • During extra time, referee Daniel Siebert denied an Arsenal penalty appeal after Nuno Mendes challenged Noni Madueke. Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalhaes then missed the decisive spot-kick, sealing PSG's victory.
  • Consecutive titles cement PSG's status as a European dynasty, matching Real Madrid's 2018 feat. Coach Luis Enrique secured his third European Cup, joining an elite managerial group.
  • Looking ahead, the Parisians will face Europa League winners Aston Villa in the UEFA Super Cup on August 12, marking the beginning of PSG's title defense campaign.
