After surviving an early Arsenal storm, Paris St. Germain won 2-1 on Wednesday thanks to goals from Fabian Ruiz and Achraf Hakimi, advancing them to the Champions League final.
After a 3-1 aggregate victory, the French champions will finally be able to take home the trophy they have been longing for when they play Italian powerhouse Inter Milan in Munich on May 31.
Gianluigi Donnarumma, the custodian for PSG, made crucial stops as Arsenal dominated the first half at the Parc des Princes, trailing 1-0 from the first game last week.

Ruiz subsequently doubled PSG’s aggregate advantage in the 27th minute with a spectacular left-footed strike that went past David Raya, making Arsenal pay for not taking any opportunities.
In the 69th minute, Raya stopped Vitinha’s penalty kick, but Hakimi scored a beautiful shot moments later to give Raya no chance and make it 2-0 for the evening.
In the 76th minute, Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka responded and then blasted a spectacular chance over the crossbar, preventing the visitors from making it to the final for the first time since 2006.
