For one unforgettable television moment, the line between journalist and fan disappeared, reminding viewers just how deeply football can touch the hearts of those who follow it.
How PSG beat Arsenal
PSG held their nerve to claim a 4-3 shootout victory after Arsenal’s Eberechi Eze and Gabriel Magalhaes both failed to convert their spot-kicks.
Gabriel’s effort sailed high over the crossbar, handing the French champions a second successive European title.
The defeat was particularly difficult for Arsenal supporters, who were frustrated by a controversial incident in which Noni Madueke appeared to be fouled inside the penalty area by Nuno Mendes.
Referee Daniel Siebert waved away appeals for a penalty, while VAR declined to intervene.
