#PSGARS 🔥⚽ Arsenal Dominates PSG in the Champions League!
Arsenal defeats PSG in the Champions League!
A match controlled from start to finish by the Gunners!
Despite a ball possession largely in favor of PSG (62% against 38%), Arsenal showed remarkable efficiency to win 2-0 against the Parisians. From the 20th minute, Havertz opened the scoring, taking advantage of a good collective action. PSG tried to react, but came up against a solid Gunners defense. And just before half-time, Saka doubled the lead on a counter-attack. In the second half, PSG pushed to get back into the game, but clear chances were scarce. Arsenal managed their lead perfectly and took a valuable victory in this new Champions League.
A tactical victory for Arteta?
PSG’s dominance in terms of possession was sterile against Arsenal’s well-grouped and disciplined team block. The Gunners perfectly exploited the Parisian flaws on the counter-attack. We can salute the tactical choice of Arteta, who perfectly managed to stifle the Parisian attack. Did the absence of Mbappé weigh in the balance? Perhaps, but we must also recognize the merit of Arsenal.
