Arsenal reached their first UEFA Champions League final in 20 years after defeating Atlético Madrid 1-0 in the second leg of the semifinals, securing a 2-1 aggregate victory. Bukayo Saka scored the crucial goal just before halftime, tapping in a rebound from Leandro Trossard's shot. The match was characterized by physical play, with both teams having penalty appeals denied. Arsenal dominated possession but struggled to test Atlético's goalkeeper Jan Oblak until Saka's goal. This victory sets up a final against either Paris Saint-Germain or Bayern Munich on May 30 in Budapest. Arsenal's defense has been impressive throughout the tournament, remaining unbeaten in 14 matches and conceding only six goals, which includes a record-low four goals in the league phase. The win also boosts Arsenal's confidence as they continue to compete for the Premier League title against Manchester City.
