Arsenal is silent and Bernabeu, the Champions League will have a new winner
The Champions League will have a new winner this season after the current Real (Madrid) has dropped out of Arsenal with a total score of 1: 5 in the quarterfinals. Last week, after the 0-3 loss to the « Emirates » in London, it was clear that the White Ballet would need a miracle to reach the semifinals, but the « artillerymen » left with a victory from Bernabeu.
Success could also be more convincing if Bukayo Saka had not missed a penalty in the first half, when his frivolous attempt to perform the white spot in the « Panenka » style was saved by Tibo Courtois. Real kept the ball more, but it never created clean goals. Shortly before the break, the French judge Francois Letexie also ruled a penalty for the hosts for the fall of his compatriot Kilian Mbape, but after a 5-minute consideration with lime, the 11-meter blow was canceled. In the second half, the match continued in the same channel, and Carlo Ancelotti’s shifts did not work. On top of that, Mbape left injured in the middle of the second half, and Bukayo jacket removed for a missed penalty and led Arsenal forward in the result after a unique pass by Mikel Merino. Salib’s horrific mistake allowed Vinisus to equalize, but for more Real had no strength. In the end, Gabriel Martinelli ended a brilliant counterattack and a new Merino assist with a win -win for Michel Arteta team.
