Several English Premier League clubs and their fans took some shots at Arsenal on social media on Saturday following their loss to Paris Saint-Germain on penalty kicks in the 2026 UEFA Champions League final.<\/p>\n
Chelsea and Nottingham Forest made some conveniently timed posts on X regarding their past European titles, while Crystal Palace heralded their own UEFA Conference League title this year:<\/p>\n
Fan accounts representing Manchester City and West Ham United also relished the opportunity to troll the Gunners:<\/p>\n
Additionally, Djed Spence of Tottenham Hotspur responded to a post by Arsenal’s official X account from months ago, and New York Knicks star Josh Hart, who is a Chelsea fan, made his feelings known regarding Arsenal as well:<\/p>\n
Playing in only their second-ever UCL final and their first since 2006, Arsenal were in search of their first Champions League title.<\/p>\n
The Gunners jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the sixth minute through Kai Havertz, but PSG tied it in the 65th minute, and the match ended up going to penalties.<\/p>\n
After Lucas Beraldo scored to put PSG up 4-3 in the penalty shootout, Gabriel Magalh\u00e3es missed the target on his chance to equalize, and Arsenal were denied a chance at history:<\/p>\n
Given the heartbreaking nature of the loss, Arsenal fans were understandably devastated when the match came to an end:<\/p>\n
While the trolling could make it an even tougher pill for Arsenal’s supporters to swallow, the 2025-26 season was a successful one nonetheless with the Gunners winning their first English Premier League title since 2004.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Several English Premier League clubs and their fans took some shots at Arsenal on social media on Saturday…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":675466,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[403,99],"class_list":["post-675465","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-soccer","tag-soccer","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/675465","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=675465"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/675465\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/675466"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=675465"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=675465"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=675465"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
