Highbury Fields "fall" as Arsenal lose to PSG.

Arsenal lost to PSG on penalties in the 2025/2026 Champions League final, and many "Gunners" fans immediately expressed their sadness.

How did Arsenal fans react after losing to PSG?

Arsenal were incredibly confident heading into this season's Champions League final. Winning the 2025/2026 Premier League title had given Mikel Arteta's team and their fans a high level of excitement.

Arsenal started the Champions League final at the Puskas Arena with an early opening goal from Kai Havertz. However, Arsenal failed to protect their lead, allowing PSG to equalize before ultimately losing on penalties after a 1-1 draw in 120 minutes.

Arsenal lost in a Champions League final for the first time in 20 years. This left "The Gunners" fans extremely disappointed, even though the team had already won the important Premier League title after a 22-year wait.

Highbury Fields is the largest park in London's Islington district and is considered a place where Arsenal fans would celebrate. The Emirates Stadium is also a popular spot, and before the final, many fans flocked there to show their support.

But after Arsenal's defeat to PSG, the events surrounding Gabriel's missed penalty quickly had a ripple effect. Arsenal fans caused many souvenir stalls at Highbury Fields displaying "Arsenal Champions" banners to suffer significant losses. The atmosphere became much more subdued, although it was noted that everyone would still be waiting for the team to return to cheer them on and celebrate... their Premier League title.

Here are some before-and-after photos of the 2025/2026 Champions League final, showcasing the emotions of Arsenal fans in both Budapest (Hungary) and London (England):
