PSG Beat Arsenal on Penalties to Retain UCL Title
PSG became back-to-back European champions as Arsenal’s long wait for a first title went on.
Paris Saint-Germain retained the Champions League title on May 30, beating Arsenal 4-3 on penalties after a tense 1-1 draw in Budapest, and the final set Nigerian social media alight.
Kai Havertz handed Arsenal the lead after six minutes, but Ousmane Dembele drew PSG level from the penalty spot on 65 minutes, and the final stayed level through extra time before the shootout decided the title.
The win saw PSG become two-time consecutive Champions League winners, the first club to go back-to-back since, completing a commanding run by Luis Enrique.
In Nigeria, the final trended heavily, with posts such as “Congratulations to PSG”, “#PSGARS”, Mbappe, Vitinha and Dembele mixing with a wave of Gunners reaction by heartbroken supporters.
