Paris Saint-Germain beat Arsenal 4-3 on penalties after a dramatic Champions League final ended 1-1 in Budapest.
Gabriel Magalhaes blazed the crucial penalty over the bar to allow holders PSG to retain their title, after Eberechi Eze had put his spot-kick wide earlier in the shootout, only for David Raya to save from Nuno Mendes to bring it back level.
Kai Havertz had given the Gunners a dream start to their first Champions League final for 20 years when he smashed home after six minutes but Ousmane Dembele equalised from the spot after Cristhian Mosquera fouled Khvicha Kvaratskhelia midway through the second half.
Arsenal felt they should have had a penalty in extra time when Noni Madueke was bundled over by Mendes but the referee waved play on and the Londoners went on to have their hearts broken in the cruellest way possible.

Arteta on PSG:
07:30 , Mike Jones"They are a superb team and I congratulate them. Individual quality they have, the manner they are coached, they are a top, top team. You have to go through the emotions and if you're in pain, then go through the pain.
"Think you could do something else, then learn from it. Reflect on that and show the ambition that we want to have again."
When is the Arsenal trophy parade and what is the route?
06:30 , Kieran JacksonArsenal will parade the Premier League trophy despite losing the Champions League in an agonising penalty shoot-out to Paris Saint-Germain.
The Gunners will still recognise their first league title for 22 years though, with a parade in Islington on Sunday, 31 May.

Rice on how to beat PSG:
05:30 , Mike Jones“You have to be mentally on it to face PSG for the whole game. They wanted us to go out and play like Bayern played them [in the semi-finals] but that's what they want but that's how they score 5-6 against opponents, you've got to be really resilient and switched on.
“We really grew into the game, had some chances. Nullified them to hardly any. Fair play to them, great manger, great team, great individuals.
“They've lost loads over the years and now is their time. We'll keep pushing for something big."
Declan Rice says ‘cruel’ and ‘devastating’ Champions League loss will not define Arsenal
04:30 , Mike JonesDeclan Rice says that Arsenal’s 4-3 penalty shootout defeat to Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final will not define Mikel Arteta’s team.
Arsenal took the lead just six minutes into the final in Budapest as Kai Havertz blasted home the opening goal but a mistake from Cristhian Mosquera offered Ousmane Dembele the chance to equalise from the penalty spot.

Rice on Madueke's potential penalty
03:30 , Mike Jones"I've not seen it back yet. At first glance on the pitch I think he's ahead of Nuno Mendes.
“I was gutted at the time because I thought the ref would go and have a look but obviously it was not clear enough to be a penalty, I thought it was and so did our staff and bench.”
How Arsenal’s endless attrition cost them the Champions League final
02:30 , Richard JollyThe most fitting way for Arsenal’s season to end, it appeared, necessitated a set-piece and Gabriel Magalhaes. Just not this particular set-piece or, for them, this particular end. The personification of their uncompromising excellence from corners was instead – strangely – on penalty duty, blazing a spot kick into the end populated by Paris Saint-Germain ultras.
The red flares were lit, but the red half of North London were in mourning.

Mikel Arteta on Gabriel taking a penalty:
01:30 , Mike Jones"He wanted to take it number five. We have prepared and trained for this moment.
"Normally the penalty takers would be Bukayo [Saka], Martin [Odegaard], Kai [Havertz] for sure. But we knew if we went to extra-time and penalties the penalty takers would be different players.
"You have to do this in this moment. We are unfortunate not to have the same precision in this moment that they had and that's why we have not won it."
Arsenal manager's praise for PSG
00:30 , Alan Smith“They are a superb team and I congratulate them. Individual quality they have, the manner they are coached, they are a top, top team. You have to go through the emotions and if you're in pain, then go through the pain,” he tells TNT Sports.
"Think you could do something else, then learn from it. Reflect on that and show the ambition that we want to have again."
Arteta's message to players
00:14 , Alan Smith"That I am so proud of them, with this season we have had under the circumstances. Internally, we know what we have been through.
"It is just a privilege to manage this group of players and this team the way they carry this badge and how much they put into it. We got a big one [Premier League] and missed out on the biggest one."
Enrique in the pantheon
23:58 , Alan SmithFor all the talk of him joining the coaching greats, Enrique says: "Legend? I'm not interested in that."
Hakimi hails Enrique
23:30 , Alan Smith"It's not easy to do it back to back, but we did,” the full-back says.
"I say every time the same, the coach is the big voice of the club. We follow him, we trust in him. Since day one he told us the team is more important than the player.
"We are really happy to have him. We have created not just a team but a family."
Rice on Arteta's reaction
23:15 , Alan Smith“He is gutted, we're all gutted,” Rice tells TNT Sports. “It's a Champions League final, the emotions and stakes are so high, it's cruel, it's football. He spoke about how much he loves us as a group. How we've been every game given 100 per cent every game. I think we've come really far this year. We got over the line in the Premier League, but we keep building. We stay positive, this won't define us."
Enrique on what's next
23:00 , Alan Smith"We need to renew the squad, because now we have to play for the position and get new players. These are the things you need to do when you're a side like Paris Saint-Germain."
Keown: Arsenal will come back stronger
22:45 , Alan Smith"Arsenal will be back bigger, better and stronger," said the former Arsenal and England defender on TNT Sports.
"They'll be in the transfer market, and this is just the start for Arteta, with the confidence of winning a Premier League."They were just one penalty kick away from becoming European champions, so I think that's great place to build from.
Odegaard: Remember the good stuff as well
22:30 , Alan Smith"Everyone is really disappointed. When you are that close to winning, it is really tough to take,” the Arsenal captain says.
"At the same time we know what we have done this season and we've achieved something incredible and we were so close to doing even better today.
"So we have to see the bigger picture and remember all the good stuff as well.”
'We deserved that,' says Enrique
22:15 , Alan Smith"I'm mixed,” the PSG head coach, now a three-time European champion, says. “Excitement, fatigue, everything but this is the best moment of the season. We are still champions, two in a row, it's amazing.
"We deserved that. Our supporters, during the whole season. We deserve to be in the final.
"It was very tough and difficult. Congratulations to Arsenal, it was very tough. They played great. It's normal. They try to take the match into phases they are strong. We tried to control the ball and press. We have won the title."
Rice on Madueke penalty shout
22:00 , Alan Smith"I've not seen it back yet, but at the time on the pitch I thought Noni was ahead of him. Looking back at the one we got against Bayer Leverkusen, it was very similar.
"I'm not going get into it now. At the time I was devastated.”
Enrique's records
21:45 , Alan SmithAccording to Uefa, Luis Enrique is the first Spanish coach to win consecutive European Cups since Jose Villalonga, who achieved the feat with Real Madrid in 1955/56 and 1956/57.

Zabarnyi's tribute
21:10 , Alan SmithI am a proud Ukrainian, for us, we are strong people, we are free people, we will always be free. We fight for freedom, Ukraine never gives up. Our people are strong. we are much more than everyone.
Arteta's initial reaction
21:03 , Alan Smith"Yes, it is very tough to accept when you are so consistent in the competition all the way to the final and in the end you lose the trophy on penalty kicks, so it is a difficult one.,” the Arsenal manager tells TNT.
Should Madueke have earned a penalty? “It could easily be a penalty. Especially we see the penalty they gave me this year in the competition. This season, the referee made a decision, and he made a different one with Cristhian Mosquera and that is an important one."
'We'll be back,' says Rice
20:50 , Alan Smith"We win together and we lose together. I'm so proud of these boys. What a season. It's been incredible. I can't speak highly enough of everyone. I'm obviously gutted but I'm trying to look with a bit of perspective. We'll be back."
Rice: 'Devastating to lose'
20:49 , Alan Smith"It's devastating to lose a Champions League final on penalties. We tried to take a lot of perspective in how far we've come as a group. An incredible season. Our 63rd game in all competitions. We've given it absolutely everything.
"We took the game to penalties. It's a lottery. That's football, you can either win on pens or lose. Some of the best teams in the world have lost on pens. We're on the receiving end of that tonight.”
Ramos reacts
20:47 , Alan Smith“It’s not a game for people with heart problems,” Goncalo Ramos tells TNT Sports. “I love these type of moments, I’m always ready to take the penalty. I want to be there in the big moments. Everybody believes in each other, every player can help, we’re very confident in every player. It’s a bit party.”
20:38 , Alan SmithConsidering the way they lost this is probably not a reason for rival fans to have a go at Arsenal supporters when they report for work on Monday but...
24.7% - Arsenal’s possession average (24.7%) was the lowest by a team in a UEFA Champions League final on record (since 2003-04), as well as their lowest in any match under Mikel Arteta where they had 11 men on the pitch throughout. Reactive. pic.twitter.com/OzIPhBzKKY

20:36 , Alan SmithAccording to Uefa’s decision-makers: “He took charge in midfield – particularly in the second half – driving his team forward and setting the tempo. It was an excellent performance from the Portuguese midfielder."
Enrique's select company
20:25 , Alan SmithLuis Enrique is now part of a select group to have become champion of Europe three times as a head coach, joining Bob Paisley, Pep Guardiola and Zinedine Zidane.
Can he catch Carlo Ancelotti, who has five?
With this PSG squad, so many of them still so young, you would not bet against it.
20:21 , Alan SmithMarquinhos lifts the trophy, walks across to his team-mates, many with their national flags tied around their waists, and hoists in the air as a stream of gold confetti sprays into the sky behind them. They are the best team in Europe - they have shown it across the season, even if Arsenal did such a good job of quietening them this evening.
20:18 , Alan SmithNow come the PSG squad, led by Luis Enrique, with every player beaming in delight.
Heartbreak for Arsenal

PSG vs Arsenal player ratings
20:08 , Mike JonesParis Saint-Germain won back-to-back Champions League’s after defeating Arsenal on penalties after the final in Budapest finished 1-1 after extra-time.
Mikel Arteta’s men executed their game plan close to perfection and nullified the firepower of the French champions while Kai Havertz proved once again how important he is in big games by scoring the opening goal just six minutes into the match.
Champions League player ratings: Gabriel shines for Arsenal despite missed penalty
A touch of class
20:08 , Alan SmithThe Parisians are in full-on party mode already, of course, but it is worth noting that when they raced off to celebrate one of them stuck around to console Gabriel - his compatriot Marquinhos.
Gabriel gutted
20:04 , Alan SmithWatching the penalty back, it’s a really bad attempt from Gabriel. Like Eze, he stuttered before taking it and the ball sailed way over.
He is, understandably, shellshocked and it is a cruel twist for a player so integral to Arsenal’s Premier League success.
PSG retain the Champions League
20:01 , Alan SmithAnd Arsenal’s players rush to embrace Gabriel, who missed the decisive final kick. In the crowd fans in red and white are in tears. At the other end sheer jubilation.

19:55 , Alan SmithThe substitute stutters and stutters some more on his run up and sends it about a yard wide to the left. He never looked like scoring.

“PSG's primary four penalty takers are not on the pitch...”
Coin tosses
19:49 , Alan SmithThe shootout will be in front of the Paris fans, who react with a huge cheer.
Who takes a penalty for Arsenal?
19:47 , Richard Jolly at the Puskas Arena“A guess: Arsenal's five takers will be Gyokeres, Eze, Rice, Martinelli and Madueke,” says Senior Football Correspondent Richard Jolly.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
19:45 , Alan SmithET 30’ - Madueke’s delivert is headed away. Rice sends another cross in from the other side but the move ends with a goal-kick and that’s the whistle. We’re heading for a shootout.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
19:44 , Alan SmithET 30’ - Gyokeres has a shot and it is deflected just wide. Arteta thinks it’s a handball. It’s nowhere near but Arsenal do have a corner entering added time.
Longest Champions League final ever?
19:43 , Richard Jolly at the Puskas ArenaGiven all the added time, this will surely be the longest Champions League final ever.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
19:43 , Alan SmithET 29’ - Timber forays down the right, cuts in and sends a shot from the tightest angle into side-netting. He could have maybe crossed.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
19:41 , Alan SmithET 27’ - Doue has a shot that spins awkwardly but Raya saves it. Then Arsenal try to counter until Mendes hauls Madueke down near halfway. It’s a booking.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
19:39 , Alan SmithET 25’ - Eze has waited patiently for his chance but he is trying to make something happen. In this instance he tries to pick out Madueke but the pass is just a touch off terget.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
19:35 , Alan SmithET 22’ - Neves wins a corner off Zubimendi. Doue’s delivery is not much better any of Demeble’s previous ones. This is cleared by the first man at the front post.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
19:35 , Alan SmithET 21’ - Back to a familar pattern. PSG pass it around, Arsenal retreat and make things difficult.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
19:33 , Alan SmithET 18 - Doue fouls Madueke down the right. This is an ideal position for Rice to deliver some magic and the big men are coming up. Rice’s cross is indeed decent but Safonov does well to punch away.
Restarted! PSG 1-1 Arsenal
19:31 , Alan SmithET 16’ - We’re back underway and within a minute Raya makes a fine job of punching clear when Ramos is about to pull the trigger.
Vitinha and Marquinhos have come off for Paris, replaced by Beraldo and Zabarnyi.
Arsenal well-equipped for a penalty shootout
19:28 , Richard Jolly at the Puskas ArenaSenior Football Correspondent Richard Jolly is already thinking about a possible penalty shootout...
“At the risk of getting ahead of ourselves, the subs Mikel Arteta has brought on could equip Arsenal well for a penalty shootout – Gyokeres is excellent from the spot and Madueke and Martinelli would seem likely takers, too.”

19:24 , Alan SmithET 15’ - There will be two additional minutes.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
19:21 , Alan SmithET 13’ - Arsenal remain furious, Rice and Arteta have been booked, but there will be no penalty. Replays show Madueke and Mendes tangling. They are both as bad as each other but, again, it’s been given previously.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
19:20 , Alan SmithET 11’ - Madueke is down in the box and wants a penalty. VAR must take a look, Arteta is furious but play continues. We need to see a replay of that.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
19:18 , Alan SmithET 10’ - When was the last time you watched an important match that had a thrilling extra time? Very little is happening.

19:14 , Alan SmithET 6’ - Zaire-Emery is on, Ruiz is off for Paris. No real pattern has developed in this period so far. Everyone is beginning to look and act in a very tired manner.

19:11 , Alan SmithET 3’ - What a waste. Madueke sends the corner into the side-netting.

19:10 , Alan SmithET 2’ - Madueke puts in a cross, Pacho cuts it out with Gyokeres behind him. And Arsenal will finally take their first corner of the evening.
Restarted! PSG 1-1 Arsenal
19:09 , Alan SmithET 1’ - We’re underway again. Lewis-Skelly and Havertz are off, Zubimendi and Eze are on for Arsenal.
Could be survival of the fittest in extra time
19:07 , Luke Baker“Who is fresher now?” asks Senior Football Correspondent Richard Jolly.
“Arsenal have the deeper squad but PSG have been able to spare many of their premier players a lot of Ligue Un games. This could be the survival of the fittest.”
FULL-TIME! PSG 1-1 Arsenal
19:03 , Alan Smith90 +7’ - Remarkable. Arsenal allow Barcola to break. Again he looks clean through but is unable to maintain perfect control of the ball and eventually scuffs a shot into the side-netting. What a let off and that means the whistle is blown. We’re heading to extra time.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
19:01 , Alan Smith90+5’ - Neves is booked for taking down Havertz inside Arsenal’s half. That break allows Dembele to be replaced by Ramos.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
19:00 , Alan Smith90’4 - PSG are pushing for a winner but Arsenal continue to keep their shape, defending almost as if they still have a lead to cling on to.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
18:59 , Alan Smith90+3’ - Time ticks by towards an extra 30. Gyokeres, who has not yet made a positive impact, gives away a free kick following a poor attempt at holding play up. Dembele, meanwhile, looks to be coming off following a hamstring twinge.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
18:56 , Alan Smith90’ - There will be six minutes added on. But it will almost certainly be followed by an additional half an hour.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
18:55 , Alan Smith89’ - What a chance for Vitinha! But he wastes it. Doue cuts in from the right, lays it off to Vitinha inside the ‘D’ but his bending shot lands on the roof of the net. That’s a let off for Arsenal, who now have Raya down with cramp as we approach added time.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
18:54 , Alan Smith88’ - Arsenal have not had a shot on target since Havertz put them in front 82 minutes ago.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
18:52 , Alan Smith87’ - Hakimi wins another PSG corner. Once more Dembele’s delivery is awful, allowing Arsenal to break via Martinelli. He tries to find Madueke but the pass is poor and the break amounts to nought.
PSG look a touch more vulnerable
18:52 , Miguel Delaney at the Puskas Arena“A good game now that is becoming a back-and-forth thriller, with Arsenal trying to force it on the edge of the PSG area, and the French side looking to counter,” says Chief Football Writer Miguel Delaney.
“Both look vulnerable, PSG arguably a touch more so. They're really struggling with long balls up.”
Will either side snatch a late winner?
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
18:51 , Alan Smith85’ - Rice flings in a long throw from the left and there is a bit of ping pong that causes brief panic. But then PSG break and Barcola looks to be clean through ... until Raya emerges off his line to smother in an act of magnificent goalkeeping. This has suddenly turned into a brilliant game!
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
18:49 , Alan Smith83’ - Substitutions for both teams.
For Arsenal, Madueke and Martinelli are on, Trossard and Saka are off.
For Paris, Barcola has been sprung, Kvaratskhelia is off.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
18:48 , Alan Smith82’ - PSG win another corner, via Saliba, but there is a delay in it being taken because Lewis-Skelly has gone down dramatically following a nudge from Marquinhos. It’s a bit of a soft reaction but when the set piece is taken Arsenal deal with it comfortably.

Will Arsenal's depth be a trump card?
18:48 , Richard Jolly at the Puskas Arena“Arteta is sending for Martinelli and Madueke,” writes Senior Football Correspondent Richard Jolly.
“Trossard and Saka have run many a mile, but nearly always without the ball. But Arsenal spent heavily last summer to give them strength in depth. Will that prove their trump card?”
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
18:46 , Alan Smith80’ - It’s a curious game now. PSG look more likely to score than in any point before their equaliser. Arsenal are also on the ball more than they had been before being drawn level.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
18:44 , Alan Smith79’ - PSG win a corner. Dembele wastes it, swinging it out for a goal kick.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
18:43 , Alan Smith77’ - A better spell from Arsenal, Rice to the fore, and Timber makes it into the Paris box but slips at an inopportune moment. Committing men forward means space for PSG to attack and Kvaratskhelia flies down the left, passing Saliba, before striking off the post and wide.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
18:40 , Alan Smith74’ - Arsenal make a rare foray forward and Havertz tries to make something happen but cannot. PSG come straight back on the attack and there is a touch more purpose to the reigning champions’ play at the moment.
Arsenal were flawless... until they weren't
18:38 , Richard Jolly at the Puskas Arena“Arsenal had been flawless at the back for an hour,” says Senior Football Correspondent Richard Jolly at the Puskas Arena.
“Then they - in the form of Mosquera - made one error and it is level. Which can be the risk when so much of the gameplan revolves around defending.”
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
18:38 , Alan Smith72’ - We’re back underway after the break. Raya gives the ball away cheaply and PSG attack, with Dembele firing wide when the minimum requirement was to find the target.

PSG 1-1 Arsenal
18:36 , Alan Smith70’ - About 100 or so police in riot gear are walking around the perimeter of the pitch behind Raya’s goal. It’s unclear why but seems a little excessive because there has been no suggestion of trouble from anywhere.
On the pitch the action pauses for a drinks break.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
18:34 , Alan Smith68’ - Now, how can Arsenal respond to that setback? The match is level, a scenario they would have been moderately happy with before the match. But to be drawn level in such a manner after such a good performance until that stage will be a hammer blow. PSG, suddenly, have a bit of a pep in their step.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
18:32 , Alan Smith67’ - The game is restarted, almost five minutes after Mosquera committed an obvious foul.
PSG 1-1 Arsenal
18:31 , Alan Smith66’ - Arsenal substitutes: Mosquera is immediately hooked, replaced by the half-fit Timber. Gyokeres is on too for Odegaard. Havertz will drop deeper.
GOAL! PSG 1-1 Arsenal (Dembele, 65)
18:30 , Alan Smith65’ - Finally, Dembele places the ball on the spot. Raya makes himself big on the line but goes the wrong way and Paris are level.
PSG 0-1 Arsenal
18:29 , Alan Smith63’ - Kvaratskhelia has a nasty gash on his right shin but it appears to have happened earlier on and not from the challenge. VAR agrees that it’s a penalty.
