Hundreds of football supporters were arrested in France overnight after Paris Saint-Germain beat Arsenal in the Champions League final. More than 400 people were detained in Paris amid clashes between supporters and police during celebrations. Fireworks and flares were used, and officers fired tear gas to disperse crowds in the city centre, injuring several police officers. PSG won on penalties under Luis Enrique to retain the title for a second consecutive season, becoming only the second team to do so in the Champions League era. The Interior Minister Laurent Nunez said authorities had a robust security system while calling the unrest absolutely unacceptable, and Marine Le Pen condemned the violence. A victory parade is scheduled for Sunday afternoon, including a reception with President Emmanuel Macron.
