PSG Retain Champions League Title After Penalty Shootout Drama

Paris Saint-Germain retained their UEFA Champions League title after defeating Arsenal 4–3 in a dramatic penalty shootout following a 1–1 draw after extra time at Budapest’s Puskás Aréna. Arsenal took an early lead through Kai Havertz in the sixth minute before Ousmane Dembélé equalized from the penalty spot in the second half. With neither side able to find a winner over 120 minutes, the final was decided on penalties, where PSG held their nerve and secured victory after Gabriel Magalhães missed Arsenal’s decisive spot-kick. The triumph makes PSG only the second club in the modern Champions League era to successfully defend the European crown.
