Player ratings as PSG reach the Champions League final following 2-1 semi-final second leg victory over Arsenal.
Paris Saint-Germain have reached their second ever Champions League final after beating Arsenal 2-1 in their semi-final second leg at the Parcs des Princes on Wednesday.
The French champions were 1-0 victors during last week's first leg and found themselves protecting a two-goal aggregate cushion by the half-time whistle. Despite Arsenal dominating the early stages and spurning several glorious opportunities, PSG entered the break ahead following Fabian Ruiz's deflected strike from the edge of the penalty box.
PSG were gifted the perfect opportunity to put the tie beyond doubt midway through the second half, but Vitinha's penalty kick was saved by David Raya. However, Achraf Hakimi swiftly did what his teammate couldn't as he curled an excellent effort beyond the Arsenal goalkeeper into the far corner.
