UEL Round of 32 2nd Leg: Arsenal (1) v Benfica (1) | Thursday February 25 | KO: 17:55 UTC | BT Sport

[Sniper Mik]

They’ve barely had a sniff over two legs but have scored a pen and a screamer freekick while we’re missing sitters left, right and centre.

This is such a miserable sport to follow.

What sitter have we missed tonight?

 

[krengon]

Not created anything decent other than the goal.. This is poverty stuff.

 

[kash2]

we seem to have lost our heads...

 

[GLITCH]

"Always Forward", but Mikey here has these players' first instinct to pass back. Even in the final third. Thank goodness Saka is special.

 

[Ash10]

This is what you get for playing like cowards

 

[Batman]

this is not normal.

they are doing nothing in two games.

getting a penalty and banging in a freekick like this.

We're an ill disciplined, moronic team with a penchant for shooting ourselves in the foot. It's very normal.

 

[Jack badmon]

They haven't looked like scoring in three halves of football, yet somehow have 2 goals ffs. We are actually ****e ffs.

Edited for you

 

[Rimaal]

Why am I always on edge about us getting a red card?

Because you're a wise woman who learns from past experiences.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Again also game management when winning last 10 minutes is poverty happen alot these players never learn

 

[Papa Wonga]

Arteta has no reason to be kept in the job if we go out of Europe tonight.

He's done nothing, been given enough time, but AM tell me because Pep said he learned something from him, he's the right man.

Yeah pep learned what to not ****in do.

 

[GoonerJeeves]

Whiffs of Olympiakos...might be the stadium.

 

[boxerumble]

and so it begins. FFS guys

We're going to regret not finishing off those chances in the first leg.

 

[Plutarch]

No surprise we've given away an equaliser. We rarely manage to press home our advantage after taking the lead. Great free kick, I suppose.

 

[blaze_of_glory]

Even if we get through here its so hard to see us actually winning this thing

 

[Taylor Gang Gunners]

I still we’ll win but I’m disappointed at how difficult we’ve made this for ourselves. Benfica shouldn’t have a say in this tie. I suppose it’s two set pieces though.

Come on guys. Don’t **** this.

 

[Kav]

That was a damn good freekick for your first ever goal.

 

[Oxeki]

And people were thinking we'll smash them. They aren't even trying to play football and yet now they have the advantage in this tie despite creating a sum total of **** all over two legs. You couldn't make this up.

 

[boonthegoon]

push ode back to cm
bring pepe or marti for dani please and go for 2 goals
and then get mo on to protect

 

[AberGooner]

We became far too cautious after we scored. Can't start playing like that with 60 mins left in a game.
