Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalhaes fired the last of his team\u2019s penalties over the bar to hand PSG a 4-3 shootout victory.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s incredible, back to back,\u201d PSG captain Marquinhos said. \u201cFrom the very first day of this season the coach said it\u2019s hard to win, and winning twice is even more difficult. So we all had to get back to work. That was the mentality.\u201d<\/p>\n

The game was 1-1 at the end of regulation time and extra time, sending the game to spot kicks.<\/p>\n

Arsenal led after six minutes when Kai Havertz broke away and blasted past PSG goalkeeper Matvey Safonov. But the defending champion dominated possession and Ousmane Demb\u00e9l\u00e9 leveled from the penalty spot in the 65th to take the final to extra time for the first time in 10 years.<\/p>

Eberechi Eze also missed an earlier spot kick, but David Raya saved from Nuno Mendes to keep Arsenal level.<\/p>\n

Lucas Beraldo scored the last of PSG\u2019s 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.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s even more special because we knew before the match how difficult it would be,\u201d PSG coach Luis Enrique said. \u201cI think it\u2019s deserved over the course of the whole season, even if the final was very closely contested.\u201d<\/p>
