Reaction to Paris Saint Germain's Champions League win with a penalty shooout victory over Arsenal after a 1-1 draw.

PSG MIDFIELDER DESIRE DOUE:

"We ​are so, so proud, so happy, so grateful as also. ‌It was a tough game against a very good team. We have to congratulate them because they had a very good season but now we just have ​to enjoy as a team, as a family because I think ​we deserve it," he told TNT broadcaster.

"Look at the crowd, ⁠look at our family. We just want to say thank you. Thank ​you. I'm just so happy ... That was my prayer, to win this ​Champions League again, and we did it.

"We have to stay humble. It's crazy. We're going to enjoy first. And after we're going to work, work again because we ​want more, we are hungry, we are a young team, and we ​know we have the ambition. So next season we have to go again."

PSG MANAGER ‌LUIS ⁠ENRIQUE:

"It's stronger than last year because we knew before the match just how difficult it would be to play against Arsenal. As a club and a city, it's incredible to win, and I think we deserved it ​over the course ​of the season. ⁠The final was a real battle," he told Canal+.

PSG MIDFIELDER JOAO NEVES:

"The emotion is there. This is the ​second time I've been European champion. It's a pleasure -not ​just the ⁠victory, but playing with these teammates. It's the best decision I've ever made in my life. I think it's well deserved," he told M6.

"This year ⁠was different; ​it was more physical, more difficult. We ​were European champions, so we were defending our title. We've made history at PSG, we're ​all delighted."
