Lineker stated that he thinks the best team in the tournament won, and that Arsenal had to play defensively to beat PSG. He also emphasized that he prefers to watch teams that play positive, creative football with the best players. According to Lineker, the three teams that have played this way this season are PSG, Bayern Munich, and Barcelona.

Lineker praised PSG's organization and their ability to create few scoring opportunities, but ultimately believes that the best team won. He also mentioned that Arsenal's unbeaten record in 90 minutes and extra time was impressive, but was ultimately ended by the penalty shootout.

As the World Cup approaches, Arsenal players will now focus on international football and try to refocus ahead of the summer.
