Arsenal proved their attacking prowess after securing a 7-1 victory on Tuesday night against PSV in Eindhoven, marking a record-breaking Champions League day.
The English team netted three goals before the end of the first half, while Jurrien Timber, Ethan Nwaneri, and Mikel Merino were all on target.
A penalty was played and successfully converted into a goal by Noa Lang, pushing PSV away from zero goals, but Arsenal was too much for PSV to beat. Martin Ødegaard scored a brace, Leandro Trossard joined those who scored that night, and a goal from Riccardo Calafiori sealed the victory.
The win put Arsenal in the position as the first team to net seven goals away from home in a Champions League knockout clash.
This victory will likely mean that Arsenal will have to battle Real Madrid or Atletico Madrid in the quarterfinal game, boosting the Gunners’ hope for a European title win.
PSV was able to pull a good game in the early minutes of the match as Ismael Saibari’s attempt hit the bar but lacked good defense, which made it a night of problems for them. Arsenal led despite Myles Lewis-Skelly being substituted to avoid being down a red card.
Arsenal continues to hope that they can silence doubts in the European run after the seven goals came from six different players, and they are the Premier League’s best defense.
