Eberechi Eze fired his spot-kick wide of the target, while Gabriel Jesus sent his effort over the crossbar, handing PSG a decisive advantage.

Although Arsenal battled hard and showed resilience, PSG were widely viewed as the more dangerous attacking side over the course of the match. The French champions created the better opportunities and consistently threatened going forward, making them worthy winners on the balance of play.

The victory represents another landmark achievement for Paris Saint-Germain, who have now claimed back-to-back Champions League titles, while Arsenal are left to reflect on a missed opportunity after falling agonisingly short on European football’s biggest stage.
