Rice rallies 200,000 Arsenal fans to Budapest as Gunners reach first Champions League final in 20 years Declan Rice has called for 200,000 Arsenal fans to head to Budapest to support the club in the Champions League final. Arsenal secured their place in the Champions League final for only the second time, and the first time in 20 years, after beating Atletico Madrid 1-0 on Tuesday night. Bukayo Saka scored the decisive goal on the stroke of half-time, reacting quickest to a rebound to secure victory for the Gunners.
Arsenal will face either Bayern Munich or Paris Saint-Germain at the Puskas Arena later this month, and Rice has rallied an army of Arsenal fans to head out to Hungary. “It's crazy saying that,” Rice said when asked about being a Champions League finalist. “Bring it on, bring it on – I’ll be ready.
Let's see what happens. Budapest, I want every Arsenal fan out there. 200,000 of you, come out!
Let's try and do it because we're going to need all the support, all the energy and let's make it really special. ” Rice reflected on the win over Atletico and said the night was the best European occasion he has been involved in at Arsenal. He hailed the club's support for lifting the side to a historic win.
