TL;DR

Arsenal beat Atletico Madrid 1-0 at the Emirates (2-1 on aggregate) to reach the Champions League final for the first time since 2006, with Bukayo Saka tapping in a rebound after Leandro Trossard’s setup. Declan Rice produced a crucial early block, and a Griezmann penalty appeal was denied after a build-up foul on Gabriel. Arsenal extend a 14-game European unbeaten run and will face Bayern Munich or PSG in Budapest on May 30.
