2 goals for 3 points. Arsenal quickly returns to victory in the Champions League, easily overcoming Sparta Prague, a transfer that they practically solved in the first half. With 10 points in 4 games, the "gunners" remain in a comfortable position, in 3rd place, 2 points behind PSG and Real Madrid.
Madueke broke away quickly in the 9th minute, took advantage of an assist from Gyokeres and with a precise shot inside the area, Arsenal took the lead. In the 38th, the Swedish “bomber” was this time served by Merino to double the figures. With an assist and a goal, Gyokeres was without a doubt the player of the match for Arsenal.
In the second half, Arteta's team slowed down, managing only to manage a double advantage, but Sparta Prague did not give up, they tried at several moments to get back into the game, but Nowak's goal came late, only in the 90th minute, unable to spoil Arsenal's celebration.
Coach Arteta was pleased with this success on the road: "I am very happy with the result achieved. In the Champions League it is always difficult to win on the road. We have played 4 matches up to this point, 3 of which were on the road. In this match we showed a high pace in the first half where we could have scored 3, 4 or 5 goals. We were unable to widen the gap, forcing us to be careful afterwards", said Arteta, among other things.
