Eberechi Eze missed a shot for the Gunners, but moments later David Raya saved from Nuno Mendes to get them back on level terms, before Gabriel Magalh\u00e3es fired a vital spot-kick over the bar. This gave the French giants a 4-3 penalty shootout victory.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Kai Havertz put Arsenal into the lead after just six minutes inside Budapest&#8217;s Puskas Arena. He collected the ball on the counter-attack, drove into the box and fired a shot from an angle past Matvey Safonov and into the roof of the net to give the Premier League champions an early 1-0 lead.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>There was some controversy when the ball hit Leandro Trossard in the arm during the build-up to Havertz&#8217;s finish, but the goal went ahead regardless.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Arsenal kept PSG at bay for most of the first 60 minutes, despite a first-half handball scare from Bukayo Saka, but Cristian Mosquera fouled Juvica Kvaratschelia inside the penalty area. Ballon d&#8217;Or winner Ousmane Dembele stepped up to the penalty spot, sparking a European Cup holder-level player in the Hungarian capital.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>This necessitated 30 minutes of extra time, but neither team could decide on a winner and a shootout was forced, with the final being decided by Gabriel&#8217;s mistake as the Brazilian centre-back&#8217;s shot went over the crossbar.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Goalscorer Havertz was left red-faced after declaring before the match: &#8220;We&#8217;re going to go on the pitch and beat them.&#8221; Mikel Arteta similarly said at a party celebrating Arsenal&#8217;s league win earlier this week: &#8220;On Saturday we will be European champions!&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>But Arsenal were ultimately undone, losing for the second time in a European Cup final, with Paris losing to Barcelona in 2006.
