Damning stats have laid bare the full scale of Arsenal’s Champions League exit after their semi-final defeat to PSG - capping off a season to forget for Mikel Arteta’s side.

Arsenal bowed out of Europe's top competition after suffering a 2-1 defeat against the French champions, eight days after a 1-0 loss at the Emirates.

The Gunners initially started the night brightly with plenty of possession before fine saves from Gianluigi Donnarumma denied them.

Fabian Ruiz then opened the scoring just before the half hour mark, with Achraf Hakimi then doubling the Parisians' lead, leaving Bukayo Saka’s late goal as nothing more than a mere consolation.
