Arsenal's H2H record vs 2023/24 Champions League group stage opponents

After an interminable six-year wait for Champions League football, Arsenal return to Europe's elite in a favourable Group B. As Premier League runners-up, the Gunners were drawn from Pot 2 but avoided the hulking top-flight champions from other divisions that lurked in Pot 1. Sevilla's name was the first to be plucked out and stuffed into Group B. The Europa League winners lost their first three La Liga Game s of the season for the first time in their History this term and only finished 12th in 2023. Both PSV Eindhoven and RC Lens came second in their respective divisions last season and complete a Champions League group devoid of league champions.

Twitter reacts to Man City's narrow Champions League final victory over Inter

Rodri scored the only goal of the 2023 UEFA Champions League final for Manchester City against Inter, sealing the third leg of a historic European treble for Pep Guardiola's team on Saturday night. A desperately cagey contest was decided in the second half but City had to survive numerous scares, with Inter's luckless Romelu Lukaku coming off the bench to reprise his series of unfortunate events from the World Cup. Last year's Champions League final in Paris caused a flood of problems for Liverpool supports and plenty of fans struggled to get into Istanbul's Ataturk Olympic Stadium on Saturday as well. It honestly should not be this difficult for fans to get to a stadium for a major fixture - it's 2023. Costs fortunes to come to these events and fans potentially miss some of it and have occasion ruined by just bad planning. — Miguel Delaney (@MiguelDelaney) June 10, 2023 Fortunately, everybody's favourite seasoning specialist beat the traffic.

Real Madrid 1-0 Liverpool (Agg. 6-2): Player ratings as Los Blancos ease into Champions League quarters

Real Madrid finished the job they started at Anfield last month by securing a 1-0 win at the Bernabeu on Wednesday night to progress to the quarter-finals of the Champions League . Los Blancos were the better side on the night and Karim Benzema’s 19th goal of the season in the closing stages added to the 5-2 aggregate lead they had built from the first leg. Liverpool needed to make a fast start to have any chance of the impossible and had the first clear chance only six minutes in when Mohamed Salah capitalised on a slip from Antonio Rudiger and fed the ball through to Darwin Nunez – his low shot was blocked by Thibaut Courtois’ feet. But a stark reminder of Real’s danger came moments later when, after a slick move, a better square pass from Toni Kroos would have given Benzema a tap-in. Kroos himself also went close in the early stage, smashing a left-footed drive that Liverpool were grateful was straight at Alisson. Los Blancos remained closest to breaking the deadlock when Alisson so...
