2005/06 Arsenal FC 0-0 Real Madrid CF: What happened next

• Arsenal FC went on to lose 2-1 to FC Barcelona in their maiden final. The Gunners had Jens Lehmann sent off early on and succumbed to late goals from Samuel Eto'o and Juliano Belletti.

• Sol Campbell opened the scoring in Paris, his last game before joining Portsmouth FC. The central defender briefly returned to Arsenal amid an injury crisis in 2009/10.

• While Arsène Wenger's side finished the 2005/06 Premier League campaign in fourth, Real Madrid CF came second in the Spanish Liga, 12 points adrift of rivals Barcelona.

• Madrid coach Juan Ramón López Caro was replaced by Fabio Capello at the Santiago Bernabéu helm in summer 2006, just six months after his appointment.

• Thierry Henry joined Barça after an injury-ravaged 2006/07 campaign. The France striker left Arsenal as the club's all-time leading scorer with 226 goals in 370 games.
