Holders Paris Saint-Germain booked a Champions League final clash against Arsenal F.C. after a 1-1 draw with FC Bayern Munich in their semi-final second leg on Wednesday sealed a 6-5 aggregate victory.
Leading 5-4 after last week’s thrilling first leg in Paris, Luis Enrique’s side extended their aggregate advantage early through Ousmane Dembele.
Harry Kane scored in added time for Bayern, but it proved too late to spark a comeback.
Moreover, PSG will head into the final against Premier League leaders Arsenal on May 30 in Budapest as favourites after producing an excellent defensive display at the Allianz Arena, the venue where they secured their maiden Champions League title against Inter Milan last year.
And ,the French giants are hoping to become only the second back-to-back winners since 1990, after Real Madrid.
Also, Bayern were angered by some first-half refereeing decisions but were largely toothless in attack.
The six-time European champions have still not reached the final since beating PSG in the 2020 showpiece in Lisbon.
PSG extended their aggregate lead to two goals in just the third minute, as Dembele fired the ball into the roof of the net from Khvicha Kvaratskhelia’s cutback.
Manuel Neuer made several fine second-half saves to deny Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Desire Doue, keeping FC Bayern Munich in the tie.
Harry Kane drilled home his 14th goal of the competition in the fourth minute of added time, but it proved too little, too late for the home side.
