What happened: Paris Saint-Germain lifted the Champions League trophy again, completing back-to-back triumphs in Europe's premier club competition. In the final in Budapest, PSG overturned a first-half deficit to beat Arsenal, who had led through an early Kai Havertz goal. The result follows a campaign in which PSG knocked out Bayern Munich at the semifinal stage.

Why it matters: Retaining the trophy cements PSG as the dominant force in European club football and validates the project under Luis Enrique. For a club that spent years chasing its first European crown, defending it marks a historic peak and reshapes the continental hierarchy heading into next season.

By the numbers: Second consecutive Champions League title for PSG. En route to the final they eliminated Bayern Munich at the semifinal stage; in the final, Arsenal led 1-0 at the interval through Kai Havertz before PSG recovered to win.

What to watch: Focus shifts to PSG's summer plans and how Europe's chasing pack responds to a side that has now set the standard two seasons running.
