Published

Defending champions Paris Saint-Germain have booked their place in the 2026 UEFA Champions League final after a 1-1 draw against Bayern Munich on Wednesday secured a 6-5 aggregate victory.

Luis Enrique’s side came into the second leg with a narrow 5-4 advantage from the thrilling first leg in Paris and extended their lead early in the return fixture through Ousmane Dembele.

Bayern pushed for a comeback and eventually found the net through Harry Kane in stoppage time, but the late goal proved insufficient to stop the French side from progressing.

PSG will now face Arsenal in the final after the North London club eliminated Atletico Madrid in the other semi-final.

The upcoming showdown will see Arsenal attempt to win Europe’s biggest club competition for the first time, while PSG will be aiming to retain the title they won last season under Luis Enrique.
