PSG defended their Champions League crown with a penalty shootout win over Arsenal on Saturday evening.

Gabriel Magalhaes blazing Arsenal's fifth penalty over the bar was the deciding moment in handing PSG successive Champions League trophies, and they fully deserved their victory.

Luis Enrique's side recorded an xG of 1.73 from 21 shots, while Mikel Arteta's men landed just one shot on target, and that was Kai Havertz's sixth-minute opener. 

PSG goalkeeper Matvey Safonov had a quiet night between the sticks, as he was forced into zero saves. Coincidentally, this came after OnlyFans model Mary Rock offered him 'as many passionate nights as saves (he) makes in the match' during the final. 

Of course, Safonov didn't make any, and his wife has since responded to Rock's initial offer. "She has no idea that, for him, passionate nights mean doing crossword puzzles, watching 'What? Where? When?' and going to bed at 11:30 because, damn it, he has to get up early the next day to work out," Marina Kondratiuk said.

Safonov's performance was arguably the perfect response to the adult model's outrageous challenge.
