Chelsea, meanwhile, suffered another 4-1 defeat by Barcelona as they lost their semi-final 8-2 on aggregate.

Arsenal

Arsenal manager Renee Slegers speaking to DAZN on how proud she is of her side: "Very, very very proud. Again, I think we showed it before in this season and I think this was the biggest challenge so far coming back from a 2-1 loss at the Emirates against this top team with so much quality.

"Coming out here so calm and composed with so much belief in what we're doing and courage on the pitch. I'm so proud of the players, they've been working incredibly hard.

"Against a top team momentum is going to shift, and you can see that today. I think we had really strong phases in the game and that's also a challenge to stay balanced and keep on making the right decisions, especially against a team like Lyon who have so much threat. But then we also had to face the phases when they have the threat and we had to stay very level and calm in our heads, stick to the task and regulate our emotions on the pitch. The concentration was so good today.

"Last week we couldn't finish or set up the situations to create big enough chances and I think we adjusted that today. When we find the right places, play in the right rhythm, you see the quality of the players in the squad."

On facing Barcelona in the final: "I look forward to it. Barcelona is a fantastic football team and we respect them and we really look forward to the challenge. We are going to do everything to prepare really well for the final, but we play Aston Villa soon, so that's the next one."

Arsenal had lost each of their four semi-finals since winning the competition in 2006-07.

Not this time.

Lyon

Lyon Boss Joe Montemurro spoke to DAZN after defeat against his former side Arsenal: "A lot things [went wrong]. It's very difficult to analyse straight after the game but probably from the personality, tactics and emotion. It was a difficult day for us.

"We have been pressed hard by many teams and Arsenal did it very well today. We tried to play through it but Arsenal were smarter and better than us and they deserve the credit for the win.

"Until today we were unbeaten, for what happened today was a little bit unexplainable. We weren't calm enough to play our game and were beaten by the better team."

Arsenal

Arsenal forward Caitlin Foord speaking to TNT Sports on the 500 Arsenal fans watching on: "They were insane, They stuck them up in the nosebleeds but they were loud and we heard them. They definitely always gives us that push and I'm so proud to be part of this club and have fans that follow us everywhere and have our back every single game."

On facing Barcelona in the final: "It's going to be a tough game, a final, anything can happen. We look forward to it. It's an exciting moment for us, so just can't wait to take them on."

Arsenal

Arsenal Goalscorer Caitlin Foord, speaking to DAZN: "Any goal is special to get for this club and to do it in a moment like I did, I am so happy.

"I think we played really well and created the momentum. We finished our chances which is so important. We won the ball higher up in crucial areas and I think we rattled them a bit. We got them in good areas and finished our chances."

Looking at Barcelona, they will be favourites. They've been there, done it, and they'll be confident.

Arsenal are the underdogs.

But they'll both be enjoying tonight.

I want to see Renee Slegers' tactical details. She's going to have to pull something magical out but if they have the belief to do it, why not?

The manager has put a style in that suits the players and particularly Kim Little. She's playing higher up the pitch.

I can't believe she's still playing at this level and getting better and better. It's because of her attitude and application.

Her and Caldentey's relationship, having the licence to go and attack, using her body, her calmness keeping the ball.

When she got emotional at the end, I've never seen that. She's a classy player and person.

Arsenal

Kim Little, who won the UEFA player of the match, spoke to DAZN after Sunday's victory: "It means a lot to this incredible football club. I'm excited and looking forward to representing this club in the final.

"We have belief in this group and we are very good at executing our game plans. We did it fairly well in the first leg but not well enough - today we executed it very well and thoroughly deserved to win.

On manager Renee Slegers: "Her calmness and composure, her detail and her simplifying, the words before the game are like that and you can see that in our performances.

"Barcelona are an incredible team and we are aware of their strengths, but I believe in this team and when we are at our best we can beat anyone."

Lianne Sanderson
Former England footballer on DAZN

We always found it difficult to beat Lyon when I was playing, but the way the girls turned up for this performance, I'm so proud of them. I hope they take the crown from us [the team who won in 2007],

I really do. Renee Slegers has done an amazing job in a short space of time. I thought Arsenal's midfield got overran in the first half, but tonight it was an unbelievable performance. It makes me so proud.

Make sure to stick around for all of the reaction to Arsenal reaching the Champions League final.

At the start of her Arsenal career, Mariona Caldentey was playing on the left wing, but she's better in central possessions where she can hurt teams and influence the game.

Her goal was top bins, thank you very much. Lyon were deflated.

Fara Williams
Former Chelsea midfielder on TNT Sports

You're going away, chasing that one goal. Right from the off, in terms of their press and getting in shape out of possession, Arsenal did it really well.

The quality they had with the ball was the difference in this leg from the first leg and their ruthlessness in front of goal.

As Fara says, there's been a big turnaround since Renee Slegers took over from Jonas Eidevall as Arsenal boss.

She's only the third manager to guide an English team to a Women's Champions League final.

Fara Williams
Former Chelsea midfielder on TNT Sports

If you look back at the early parts of the season, Arsenal had some really difficult moments, certainly when Jonas Eidevall was in charge.

Renee Slegers has given them something different. You've seen a real shift in the players.

They've been the strongest WSL team of late. The two most in-form teams in Europe are going to the final.

They were phenomenal today.
