Mikel Arteta hailed his “incredible” players for “making history” after Arsenal secured their place in the Champions League final with a 1-0 win against Atletico Madrid at the Emirates Stadium.

Bukayo Saka delivered the decisive goal on the stroke of half-time to fire the Gunners to a 2-1 aggregate semi-final triumph.

They will face either Bayern Munich or Paris Saint-Germain in Budapest on May 30.

Arsenal have never won Europe’s grandest tournament, and Arteta said, “It was an incredible night. We made history again together, and I cannot be happier and prouder for everybody that’s involved in this football club.”

Arsenal will arrive for the showpiece as the sole unbeaten team in this season’s competition following a remarkable record of 11 wins and three draws.
