PSG makes history: parisian supporters celebrate double champions league triumph in budapest

The Parisians who made the journey to the Puskas Arena in Budapest on Saturday witnessed a night to remember, as their PSG side secured back-to-back Uefa Champions League titles with a dramatic penalty shootout victory over Arsenal. Around 20,000 supporters packed the Hungarian capital’s stadium, many of whom had also been present in Munich last year when the first crown was won—though this time, the tension was far greater.

“I was on the edge of my seat for the entire first half, right up until the penalty, says Victor, visibly relieved. Around me, there were dozens of Arsenal fans. It was unbearable at times.”

“We created chances in the second half, forced a shootout, and now we’re champions of Europe again. It’s incredible—words can’t describe it,” adds Julien, grinning as he reflects on the night’s events.
