Chelsea mock Arsenal with 'London's Home of Trophies' post after final loss

Chelsea wasted no time reminding Arsenal of the capital's pecking order after the Gunners' Champions League final defeat to Paris Saint-Germain. While Arsenal were still reeling from the penalty shootout, Chelsea's official Instagram posted an advertisement for their stadium tours that read: "Come and visit London’s Home of Trophies", accompanied by two star emojis and an image of the Champions League trophy itself.

The timing was clinical: the post appeared almost the exact moment Gabriel Magalhaes missed the fifth and final spot-kick, handing the trophy to the French giants after a 1-1 draw over 120 minutes. The reminder was clear — Chelsea remain the only London club to have hoisted the Champions League, doing so in 2012 and 2021.

In the Arsenal camp, Mikel Arteta admitted the pain: "It's very tough to accept when you are so consistent in the competition all the way to the final and you lose it on penalty kicks.
