PSG are European champions for the second consecutive time. In the Champions League final, the Parisians beat Arsenal 5-4 on penalties after a 1-1 draw after regulation and extra time. In Budapest, there was another celebration for Luis Enrique, with Gabriel's error the decisive goal.
The Gunners scored early: in the 6th minute, Marquinhos played the ball to Trossard in midfield, but the rebound sent Havertz through on goal. He entered the box from the left and fired a powerful left-footed shot under the crossbar from almost the byline, but Safonov remained still and the ball went in . It was a difficult first half for PSG, who couldn't find the right space to break through. They did just after the hour mark, when Kvaratskhelia, served on the left, was met by Mosquera: penalty. Dembélé sent Raya the wrong way from the spot, making it 1-1 in the 65th minute. Kvaratskhelia again came close to taking the lead in the 77th minute, running up the middle of the pitch and his left-footed shot was tipped onto the post by Lewis-Skelly. In the 89th minute, Doué found Vitinha for a right-footed shot from just over the bar, and the last chance before extra time was Barcola's left-footed shot that went wide.
In the first of two periods of extra time, Arsenal protested following a collision in the box between Madueke and Nuno Mendes, which referee Siebert this time allowed play to continue. And in the second half, with similarly limited opportunities, in the 117th minute, a deflected shot from Doué fell to Raya, who caught it high. In the 120th minute, Gyökeres found himself free to fire a right-footed shot from the edge of the box, but Pacho saved .
Gonçalo Ramos scored first in the penalty shootout, with a right-footed shot into the top corner, and Gyökeres equalized by sending Safonov the wrong way. Doué followed suit with a shot to the same spot, to Raya's left, but Eze took forever to shoot, and when he did, it went wide. His goalkeeper, however, quickly made up for the mistake, saving Nuno Mendes's subsequent shot, allowing Rice to level the score. Former Inter Milan defender Hakimi sent Raya the wrong way, and Martinelli followed suit with a powerful right-footed shot. .
