Arsenal’s immovable object meets the unstoppable power of Paris Saint-Germain in Saturday’s Champions League final offering a fierce clash of styles.
PSG’s PSG attack is arguably the most exciting on the continent, with Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal marrying the tactics that ended their 22-year wait to win the Premier League.
The Gunners’ football this season has not won many neutrals but after years of close and close, Arteta’s strategy has paid off.
Arsenal’s resilience defeated Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City to be crowned champions of England and saw them return to the top of Europe two decades after reaching the 2006 final.
In the Champions League Arsenal have conceded just six goals in 14 matches and are unbeaten – unlike PSG who have conceded 22 through the tournament.
“Without the ball, they are the best team in the world,” said PSG coach Luis Enrique on the north London side.
