Paris Saint-Germain defeated Arsenal 1-0 in the first leg of their Champions League semifinal Tuesday, building an advantage to take home to the French capital for next week’s second leg.
Leading scorer Ousmane Dembele continued his remarkable season by scoring the lone goal of the match. He smacked a low shot in off the post in the fourth minute of play at the Emirates Stadium. He later left the game in the second half with an apparent injury, which coach Luis Enrique will be sweating ahead of the return fixture.
Goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma, one of PSG’s protagonists during their Champions League run, stood tall to prevent an Arsenal equalizer, making five saves during the engrossing contest.
