Early in the game, Ousmane Dembele scored the opening goal for Paris Saint-Germain against Arsenal in Champions League semifinals.
Paris Saint-Germain traveled to the Emirates Stadium for the first leg of the UEFA Champions League semifinals against Arsenal. In one of the most highly anticipated matches of the 2024–25 season, Ousmane Dembélé struck early to give the French side the lead.
Right from kickoff, PSG applied high pressure on Arsenal and quickly asserted control. In the 4th minute, after a sharp build-up, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia delivered a pinpoint cross to Dembele, who finished at the far post with a strike that left goalkeeper David Raya with no chance.
Dembélé has been a standout under Luis Enrique, emerging as one of Europe’s top scorers in the 2024–25 season with 32 goals and 12 assists in 44 appearances. This has marked the 8th goal scored in this edition of the Champions League, sitting in 5th position in the scoreboard.
