PSG Retain Champions League Crown Over Arsenal
PSG became back-to-back European champions as Arsenal's long wait for a first title went on.
Nigerian supporters watched the shootout unfold.
This year's Champions League final ended level at 1-1 after 120 minutes, with PSG prevailing in the shootout to retain their crown, a result that Nigerian fans reacted to in their numbers.
Kai Havertz handed Arsenal the lead in the sixth minute, but Ousmane Dembele levelled from the penalty spot on 65 minutes, and the final stayed level through extra time until the shootout settled it.
The win saw PSG become two-time consecutive Champions League winners, the first club to retain the trophy in years, completing a dominant campaign by Luis Enrique.
Supporters across Nigeria turned the final into one of the night's biggest talking points, and the country's X trends filling up with both PSG celebration and Arsenal heartbreak, a sign of just how closely Nigerians follow the Champions League.
