00:00Ya estoy aquí, me diste a venir. Quiero gritar, no hay distancia. Ya estoy aquí, me diste a venir.
00:12Excitement enveloping everyone here, because it is a huge occasion.
00:17The Champions League final, who's going to be crowned Club Kings of Europe?
00:25It's PSG, they face Arsenal, live, right here on EA TV.
00:33This is the big one, marked on calendars for months. The decider is finally upon us.
00:40I'm Derek Ray, here on the commentary position, joined by Sue Smith, and it promises to be an unforgettable Champions
00:47League final.
00:48It's Paris Saint-Germain versus Arsenal.
00:51Well, what a game this promises to be. Two superb teams who've shown some class throughout the tournament.
00:57We're all set for a brilliant match. I can't wait for this.
01:02We're all set for a brilliant match. We're all set. We're all set. We're all set. We're all set. We're
01:19all set. We're all set. We're all set. We're all set. We're all set. We're all set. We're all set.
01:19We're all set. We're all set. We're all set. We're all set. We're all set. We're all set. We're all
01:19set. We're all set. We're all set. We're all set. We're all set. We're all set. We're all set. We're
01:19all set. We're all set. We're all set. We're all set. We're all set. We're all set. We're all set.
01:23We're all set. We're all set. We're all set. We're all set. We're all set. We're all set. We're all
01:23set. We're all set. We're all set. We're all set. We're all set. We're all set
01:47And here is the initial 11 for Paris Saint-Germain.
01:51Gianluigi Donnarumma stands between the posts.
01:54Ashraf Hakimi plays with Nuno Mench in the full-back positions.
01:58Vitor Ferreira starts with Fabian in the centre of midfield.
02:02And the responsibility of leading the line today goes to Ousmane Dembélé.
02:35And so the starting 11 for Arsenal.
02:39Gabriel plays alongside William Saliba in central defence.
02:43Bukayo Saka plays with Leandro Trosar out wide.
02:47And the idea is to have just the one striker up there trying to pose problems for the opposition.
03:02And so it begins.
03:05The UEFA Champions League final is underway.
03:13Declan Rice.
03:23Subi Mendy.
03:25And promising stealth from Arsenal.
03:32Oh, they were in a decent position too.
03:40Oh, good vision.
03:43Marquinhos with the block.
03:45Yeah, absolutely top quality, wasn't it?
03:48No fluency from either side.
03:51Oh, disappointing end to that.
03:53Well, it was the pressure that forced that clearance.
03:56And a throw-in now.
04:12Effective challenge.
04:20Now, options are plenty.
04:27And he could be in proper trouble here.
04:30And that'll be offside.
04:49Well, compelling them to clear us out of play.
05:00Joao Neves.
05:03Really good build-up, but no end product.
05:09Well, sometimes a player is simply a natural talent.
05:12Ousmane Dembele falls in that category.
05:14What do you expect to see from him today?
05:16Well, the power and the pace that he can get on the ball from distance.
05:19It's just superb.
05:21If you don't close him down quickly as a defender,
05:24the ball could be in the back of the net before you know it.
05:26He's a danger player for sure.
05:29Oh, that looked really promising for them.
05:39He's in here.
05:44Oh, in for the chance.
05:47And wouldn't he love to have that opportunity back?
05:50Well, that's a huge opportunity to take the lead.
05:53And he just doesn't compose himself.
05:55He can see the frustration on his face.
06:12Marquinhos, now with Baccio, and he's lost custody of the ball here.
06:16Marquinhos, now with Baccio, and he doesn't have to do it on his own.
06:27It will be a Paris Saint-Germain free kick.
06:34And with that, the attack fizzles out.
06:48Hakimi, they've lost possession, Paris Saint-Germain.
06:58Good run, very much in control of the situation.
07:03Well, disappointing end to the move.
07:08And space for him to cut in.
07:16So up with a line and a throw in.
07:30And the challenge holds them in their tracks.
07:38And add a play for a Paris Saint-Germain throw-in.
07:51It'll still be Mendy.
07:53It's with Erdogan.
07:59An encouraging Arsenal move.
08:02But it fizzles out, thanks to that piece of defending.
08:09Oh, fearless!
08:14Quick counter could be on.
08:19Out of play.
08:21PSG throw-in forward coming.
08:31Ferreira.
08:33Very quick thinking there.
08:41He has teammates around him.
08:46They've lost possession here at Arsenal.
08:52Neither side able to keep the ball.
08:56It's looking promising.
09:00And given free reign to run.
09:03Rifting in off the flank.
09:06Opportunity here.
09:07And that goes down as an effort that he's not going to be remembering fondly.
09:25Good piece of closing doubt.
09:28Wasteful from Arsenal.
09:29Must take the lead here.
09:32And they've scored!
09:35First goal in this season's UEFA Champions League final.
10:03So the game restarted by Arsenal.
10:06A wake-up call for the Arsenal players, perhaps.
10:08Can't they construct a response.
10:12Subi Mendy.
10:20And fine work from Arsenal to win it back.
10:33And support available.
10:35And support available.
10:36Effective challenge.
10:46Martin Oedegaard.
10:47Martin Oedegaard.
10:50Not a huge chunk of added time.
10:53One minute.
10:56That's a good-looking pass.
11:01That is that for the first half here.
11:03One minute.
11:29Truth to the half.
11:35so the ball is rolling again
11:37Arsenal trailing going into the second half
11:39will they come up with the right response
11:46oh he's lost possession of the ball
11:52Marquinhos with the block
11:57and a precise challenge
11:59just when it was required
12:04you don't want to give the ball away there
12:18and a throw in for Arsenal
12:27and a throw in for Arsenal
12:30to win the ball back
12:37Gabriel
12:42Rice with it
12:45just the challenge that was required
12:57nothing comes of it
13:00goalkeeper's ball
13:18well-timed tackle
13:31what a really good run
13:42we have 30 minutes to go
13:47and PSG couldn't hang on to it
13:55possession changing hands over and over again
14:06and through for the goal kick
14:08he hit it with power
14:30Gabriel
14:45plenty of support here
14:47and the challenge holds them in their tracks
14:53well he's been ruled offside
15:12room to roam for PSG on the wing
15:16throw in the ball
15:17throw in's given
15:20well they made it far too easy there
15:22oh you've got to do better than that
15:31and that is offside
15:33and that is offside
15:35and that is offside
15:55Gabriel
15:55Gabriel
15:58it's with Erdogan
15:59and they have possession again
16:08well maybe a good position from which to counter
16:18so a throw in for PSG
16:28and out of play
16:30the pass nearly worked out
16:32but not quite
16:39and quick thinking defensively
16:42yeah and I like the approach play
16:44but just like that final pass didn't they
16:47Uri and Timber
16:51so out for a throw in
16:59and he's lost custody of the ball here
17:22well here's the replay
17:24and he's aimed for the corner
17:25it's a decent strike
17:27gets his look in off the post
17:29and he's off celebrating
17:47and the ball is moving again
17:482-0 is how it stands
17:52Martin Odegaard
17:54it'll still be Mendy
18:07Hakimi
18:10determined defending
18:12well it could be on for him here
18:16vital block there
18:18takes the shot
18:20oh not cleared away
18:21and there it is
18:23and there it is
18:24an almost intuitive piece of finishing
18:34as the replay shows
18:35the goalkeeper does everything he can
18:37he's a bit unfortunate it goes in
18:40but question marks have to be asked
18:42of his defence
18:43they could have certainly helped him out
19:04so the match has restarted but you do feel that is that
19:09oh he's left as marker for dead
19:11well defending always has to be a team effort
19:14good piece of covering
19:17five minutes to go
19:22well a touch too heavy there

19:48just been a good all-round performance
19:52well trying to get wide from there
