Arsenal Advances to Champions League Quarter-Finals

Arsenal secured a convincing 9-3 aggregate win over PSV Eindhoven, setting up a thrilling quarter-final clash against Real Madrid. The Gunners’ 2-2 draw in the second leg at the Emirates Stadium was enough to see them through, despite a subdued atmosphere.

Key Highlights:

• Oleksandr Zinchenko scored a stunning opening goal for Arsenal.
• Ivan Perisic equalized for PSV with a precise finish.
• Declan Rice headed Arsenal back in front, but PSV restored parity through Couhaib Driouech.

Manager’s Reaction:

Mikel Arteta will be pleased to have guided Arsenal into the last eight for the second consecutive season. However, he may be concerned about the team’s intensity and the lack of urgency in the second leg.

Looking Ahead:

Arsenal faces a daunting task against 15-time European Cup winners Real Madrid in the quarter-finals. With the Premier League title seemingly out of reach, the Champions League represents the Gunners’ best chance of silverware this season.
