Paris Saint-Germain have won back-to-back Champions League trophies by beating Arsenal on penalties in a dramatic final in Budapest.
Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalhaes fired the last of his team's penalties over the bar to hand PSG a 4-3 shootout victory at the Puskas Arena on Sunday (NZ time).
The nervy game was poised at 1-1 at the end of regulation time and extra-time, sending the game to spot-kicks.
Arsenal's Gabriel reacts after missing his penalty against PSG goalkeeper Matvei Safonov.
Arsenal had led after six minutes when Kai Havertz broke away and blasted past PSG goalkeeper Matvey Safonov.
But the defending champions dominated possession and Ousmane Dembélé levelled from the penalty spot in the 65th to take the final to extra time for the first time in 10 years.
Eberechi Eze also missed an earlier spot kick, but David Raya saved from Nuno Mendes to let Arsenal stay level.
Lucas Beraldo scored the last of PSG's spot kicks, meaning Gabriel had to convert to take it to sudden death.
But he blasted high over the bar to spark celebrations from PSG players and fans inside Puskas Arena.
