Coverage also points to the upcoming final opponent being decided elsewhere, with some reports stating the final will be against Paris Saint-Germain or Bayern Munich. The overall picture across sources is consistent: Saka’s goal provides the margin in a narrow home win, and Arsenal advance on aggregate to set up the next stage of the competition.
