A painful night for Arsenal turned into a powerful show of support for one of their own.

Despite missing a crucial penalty in Arsenal's Champions League final defeat to Paris Saint-Germain, defender Gabriel has received an overwhelming response from fans, with reports claiming sales of his shirt have soared since the match.

The Brazilian centre-back stepped up to take Arsenal's fifth penalty during the shootout but sent his effort over the crossbar, allowing PSG to retain the European title.

While many players would face criticism after such a moment, Arsenal supporters appear to have responded differently. Reports indicate that demand for Gabriel's shirt increased dramatically following the final, making him one of the club's most popular names among supporters over the weekend.

The reaction has been seen by many fans as a sign of loyalty and appreciation for a player who has played a key role in Arsenal's recent progress both in the Premier League and Europe.

Although the defeat was a heartbreaking end to the club's Champions League campaign, supporters have shown that one missed penalty does not erase years of commitment and performances on the pitch.

For many Arsenal fans, Gabriel's difficult moment has become a reminder that backing players matters most when times are tough.
