The final is now officially set between Paris Saint-Germain and Arsenal after both clubs survived dramatic semi-final encounters.
PSG secured their place following a thrilling 1-1 draw against FC Bayern Munich, sealing a remarkable 6-5 aggregate victory after one of the highest-scoring semi-final ties in Champions League history.
Meanwhile, Arsenal booked their return to the final after defeating Atlético Madrid 1-0 at the Emirates Stadium on May 5, 2026, progressing 2-1 on aggregate. The achievement marked Arsenal’s first Champions League final appearance in 20 years and only the second in the club’s 139-year history.
The newly released Budapest 26 jersey has already sparked heavy discussion among fans online. While many supporters praised the color combination and modern appearance, others criticized the design, describing it as rushed or too heavily influenced by sponsor branding.
Despite the divided reactions, the launch has successfully increased anticipation for the upcoming showdown between PSG and Arsenal as both clubs prepare for one of the biggest nights in European football.
