Novak Djokovic: "Federer and Nadal come from two Western powers. I came from Serbia and said out loud that I was going to be number 1. The entire system did not like that: media, sponsors, tournaments. I felt like an unwanted guest crashing their party. It really hurt me back then. They wanted me to play to their tune — be politically correct, fit into their script. It hurt me so much that I even changed my behavior, hoping they would accept me. In the end, I understood that I needed to stay true to myself and to accept that some people will never like me. And that's fine. I am who I am and I sleep peacefully."
🚨🎙️Thierry Henry on why Arsenal didn’t lose the Champions League Final to PSG, they lost it to inconsistency from the officials:
“People are talking about PSG winning the Champions League. Fine. But let’s tell the truth: Arsenal were not beaten by PSG, Arsenal were beaten by inconsistency.
You cannot tell me Kvaratskhelia gets a penalty for contact in one box and then Noni Madueke gets clipped by Nuno Mendes in extra time and suddenly we’re told to play on. Football does not have two different rulebooks. Either contact that impedes an attacker is a foul, or it isn’t.
The Madueke incident is the one that will haunt Arsenal supporters for years. He gets in front, Mendes makes contact, Madueke goes down, the referee says no penalty, VAR says no penalty. If that happens in midfield, it’s a foul every single time. But because it’s in the penalty area in a Champions League Final, everyone becomes brave and wants to ‘let the game flow.’
Then people wonder why fans get frustrated.
And don’t tell me it was one isolated incident. Arsenal had a corner taken away before half-time. Every 50-50 challenge in the second half seemed to go PSG’s way. Arsenal were accused of time-wasting and suddenly every decision felt like a punishment.
What Arsenal fans are asking for isn’t favoritism. It’s consistency.
If PSG’s penalty is a penalty, then Madueke’s is a penalty. You cannot spend all season telling players to get in front of defenders, win the position, draw contact, and then in the biggest game in club football decide the rules have changed.
The sad part is that we’ll spend years talking about PSG lifting the trophy when the real talking point should be why Arsenal were denied the opportunity to win it themselves.
For me, PSG didn’t prove they were the better team. The officials made sure we would never find out.”
Daniel Siebert is the worst referee that has managed a cup final. He has to be investigated.
This was blatant corruption in front of the world from start to finish. Many suspicious calls all through the 120mins.
🚨 Mesut Özil Slams Referee After Arsenal's Controversial Champions League Final Defeat
🗣️: "I have watched football for many years, and I understand that referees can make mistakes. Nobody expects perfection. But tonight, it genuinely felt like Arsenal were fighting against more than just PSG.
The incident involving Madueke was a clear penalty for me. In any other game, anywhere else on the pitch, that contact is given as a foul immediately. I struggle to understand how the referee saw it and decided there was nothing there. Even more surprising was the lack of intervention. Moments like that can completely change a final.
What frustrated me most was the consistency. Every important decision seemed to go against Arsenal. Small fouls were given one way but not the other. Challenges that deserved bookings were ignored. Every 50-50 call appeared to favour PSG. As a player, that is incredibly difficult because you begin to feel that no matter what you do, the decisions are not going your way.
A Champions League final should be decided by the players, the coaches and the football itself, not by controversial refereeing decisions. Arsenal may not have played their best game, but they still deserved a fair opportunity to compete. When such a clear penalty is not awarded, people are always going to ask questions.
I feel sorry for the players because they worked all season to reach this stage. You can accept losing when the better team wins fairly, but it is much harder to accept when major decisions leave a cloud over the result. For me, Arsenal deserved that penalty on Madueke, and they deserved much better from the officials tonight."
I can’t describe my feelings right now… Football always gives back to those who keep believing.. To the fans who kept believing, you deserve this… Arsenal; the club that will stay in my heart forever, you deserve this… The players and everyone at the club who made it happen, you deserve this… Congratulations to the best club in the world ❤️ @Arsenal

Scared of City? No. Honestly, I want the league season to end tonight, and I will make sure we do it. We are going to stop City. Why? Because we want Arsenal to have peace of mind and time to prepare for the Champions League Final on May 30.
