Dembélé Scores, Injured in PSG’s Win Over Arsenal

Paris Saint-Germain earned a 1-0 away win against Arsenal in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League semi-final, with Ousmane Dembélé scoring early after a 26-pass sequence. Dembélé, Europe's leading attacker in 2025, left the match in the 70th minute due to a minor hamstring issue. Both Dembélé and PSG manager Luis Enrique have minimized concerns over the injury, though Enrique admitted Dembélé's participation in the second leg is uncertain pending further medical evaluation. PSG controlled much of the match but failed to extend their lead due to missed opportunities from substitutes and strong goalkeeping by Arsenal's David Raya. Arsenal had a goal disallowed for offside following a lengthy VAR review and struggled to keep up with PSG's pace and teamwork. The tie remains open for the second leg in Paris, with PSG holding a narrow advantage and Arsenal hoping for a comeback.
