Declan Rice insists Arsenal are only at the start of their journey and will continue to build after their Champions League final defeat.

Arsenal's wait for a first Champions League title goes on after they lost 4-3 to Paris Saint-Germain on penalties following a 1-1 draw after a tense 120 minutes.

Kai Havertz's early opener was cancelled out by Ousmane Dembele's second-half penalty, but neither side could find a breakthrough by the end of extra time.

Eberechi Eze then missed a penalty, though Arsenal got an immediate reprieve as David Raya saved Nuno Mendes' spot-kick, only for Gabriel Magalhaes to send his effort over the bar to seal the victory for PSG.

Arsenal are the only team to have missed the goal frame with two penalties in a Champions League final penalty shoot-out.

They also remain the team with the most games in European Cup/Champions League history to never lift the trophy (226).

But Rice was determined to remain positive following the match, despite the disappointed nature of the Arsenal dressing room.

"He's [Mikel Arteta] gutted. We're all gutted," Rice told TNT Sports.

"The emotions and the stakes are so high. He spoke about how much he loves us as a group, this season, what we've done, how we've been every game, given 100% with everything thrown at us.

"We've come really far, and this is only the start for this group. We got over the line in the Premier League, which is a dream come true, and this would have been one step further, but we keep building.

"We keep going, we stay positive."

Arsenal's possession average (24.7%) was the lowest by a team in a Champions League final on record (since 2003-04), as well as their lowest in any match under Arteta where they had 11 men on the pitch throughout.

But while Arsenal impressed defensively, holding firm against 21 PSG shots, they only managed one on-target effort themselves at the other end, accumulating just 0.4 expected goals (xG) from their seven attempts.
