Paris Saint-Germain claimed a 6-5 Champions League semifinal win over Bayern Munich, but it erupted in domestic trouble.

Nearly 130 people were arrested around Paris overnight as fans clashed with police following Paris Saint-Germain reaching the Champions League final, Interior Minister Laurent Nunez has said.

He told Europe 1 radio on Thursday that the total number of arrests was 127 in the Paris metropolitan area, including 107 in Paris, after titleholder PSG eliminated Bayern Munich to reach a second straight final and third since 2020.
