Thirteen-time English top-flight league victors Arsenal continue their quest to win a maiden UEFA Champions League title when they clash with PSG in the first leg of their semifinal at Emirates.
In their quarterfinals, Arsenal defeated defending champions Real Madrid
In their quarterfinals, the Gunners defeated defending champions Real Madrid 5-1 on aggregate, securing their spot in the tournament’s last four.
PSG’s journey to the semifinals of the Champions League has been similarly remarkable. After finishing their two-leg series level at one apiece, Les Parisiens stunned the competition by upsetting Liverpool on penalties in the round of 16.
PSG has also been completely dominant in their home Ligue 1 competition
This season, PSG has also been completely dominant in their home Ligue 1 competition. They had an incredible 30-game winning streak that ended on Friday with a 3-1 loss to Nice.
In the UCL league-phase game, Arsenal hosted Paris Saint-Germain at the Emirates Stadium on October 1, 2024.
Kai Havertz and Bukayo Saka contributed goals to Mikel Arteta’s team’s resounding 2-0 victory
Havertz headed home a beautiful cross from Leandro Trossard in the 19th minute to give the team the lead.
Later, in the 34th minute, Saka beat Gianluigi Donnarumma by curling a free kick from the right wing that went unnoticed in the back of the net.
On the parallel side, PSG’s coach Luis Enrique was a senior star at Barcelona when Arteta started his playing career at the Camp Nou, a period that had a major impact on his managerial philosophy with Arsenal.
They both share mutual respect as Arteta shares
“He was extremely supportive with the young players. He was one of the main characters by far. I have really good memories of him,” Arteta said.
“What I love about him is wherever he’s been, as a player or a manager, his fingerprints are all over the place.
“You can sense it’s his team with the way his players behave, the way they want to attack and dominate games.”
