Arsenal scored through Bukayo Saka but could not create more lethal chances to appear back in the game.
Arsenal started the 1st half with a bang as they were ready to cancel out the 1st leg advantage within the first 15 minutes but Gianluigi Donnarumma continued his 1st leg performance. He was up to the task and parried away shots from Declan Rice, Martin Odegaard and Bukayo Saka. Arsenal was all over the PSG penalty area but the only thing missing was the end product.
After the 15 minute mark, PSG woke up and started playing their football
After the 15 minute mark, PSG woke up and started playing their football. With a dream midfield of Joao Neves, Fabian Ruiz and Vitinha, it was only a matter of time that PSG were creating chances.
In the 27th minute, Fabian Ruiz struck a thunderous strike and deposited a volley in the David Raya goal against the run of play. The strike took the aggregate score to 2-0 and it looked steep for Arteta’s men.
Penalty was given to PSG after a hand ball by Lewis-Skelly
In the 66th minute, a penalty was given to PSG after a hand ball by Lewis-Skelly inside the penalty area. But David Raya stood his ground and saved the Vitinha penalty, keeping the Gunners in the game.
The final blow came in the 72nd minute when Hakimi arrived into the box and struck a beautiful shot to take aggregate to an unavoidable 3-0 lead.
Looked like game over but 4 minutes later Saka
It looked like game over but 4 minutes later Saka scored one back for Arsenal and the dream for a Remontada was alive but once again timely substitutions and great bench strength of PSG allowed the game to run out smoothly without any more trouble.
PSG are in the final and will be facing Inter Milan in Munich.
