ARSENAL
🔥🏟️I regret playing him last night, this might be the very last time he will be starting a game for me before he leaves by January”- Arteta has finally advised £50m player to get himself a new club by January following his shambolic performance last night against Shakhtar
Arsenal secured a narrow victory in their Champions League match against Shakhtar Donetsk on Tuesday night.
In a lackluster game at the Emirates Stadium, the Gunners earned all three points thanks to a 29th-minute own goal by Dmytro Riznyk. Gabriel Martinelli drove into the box and unleashed a shot that struck the post and deflected in off the Shakhtar goalkeeper.
However, Arsenal couldn’t capitalize on their lead, squandering several opportunities, including a penalty missed by Leandro Trossard in the 77th minute. Trossard opted for a soft shot straight down the middle, which Riznyk managed to save despite diving to his left.
BBC Sport pundit Chris Sutton criticized Trossard’s lack of conviction, noting, “It does hit Valerii Bondar’s right arm… Trossard tries to go down the middle, and Riznyk saves it with his right boot. A real lack of conviction. Shakhtar Donetsk are still in this and they shouldn’t be.”
Arsenal also relied on goalkeeper David Raya for several crucial saves in the closing moments, stopping efforts from Pedrinho and Marlon Gomes. The Gunners now face potential injury concerns, as Riccardo Calafiori left the match with a suspected knee issue.
With this win, Arsenal has climbed to fourth place in the Champions League table, boasting two victories and a draw, while Shakhtar remains winless and without a goal after three matches.
Arsenal’s next fixture is on Sunday afternoon, where they will host a Premier League title rival.
