Champions League final buildup, World Cup news, transfers and more – matchday live
Key events
Preamble
“A massive opportunity to do something special.” The words of Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka as the Gunners look to pull off a sensational double by following up their Premier League title success by winning the Champions League for the first time.
Opponents PSG broke their own European Cup duck last year and in scintillating style. Many shrewd judges fancied opponents Inter to grind out a narrow win in Munich; instead, Luis Enrique’s side led the Italians a merry dance to run out 5-0 winners and record the biggest victory margin in the competition’s history. The bookies make PSG favourites to retain their crown, but after ending their 20-year wait for a domestic league title perhaps the force is with Mikel Arteta’s men
The build-up begins here and, KICK-OFF ALERT, don’t be planning a day out or ordering a pizza for a 7.30pm date with the sofa as the game in Budapest kicks off at 5pm BST.
Beyond PSG v Arsenal, we’ll be travelling the globe for more World Cup news and also be looking ahead to the Women’s FA Cup final on Sunday.
Ready? Of course you are.
Let’s go! Allons-y!
