Gunners reach Budapest final after narrow second-leg victory

Bukayo Saka scored the decisive goal to send Arsenal to their first Champions League final in 20 years following a 1-0 win against Atletico Madrid at the Emirates Stadium. With the semi-final clash delicately poised at one goal each from last week’s opening leg in Spain, Saka delivered the killer blow on the stroke of half-time to secure Arsenal’s place in the showpiece in Budapest on May 30.

Saka’s winning strike completed a remarkable 24 hours for Arsenal which have laid the foundations for Mikel Arteta’s side to now complete the greatest season in their 140-year history. The Premier League title race is back in their hands after Manchester City’s 3-3 draw at Everton on Monday night, with only West Ham, Burnley and Crystal Palace standing between the Gunners and a first championship in 22 years.
