So. Presumably away goals still count double for the game which is declared our "away" game?
They do indeed.
i'd forgotten about this
3-0 Pizzi hatter
Benfica: Leite, Verissimo, Otamendi, Vertonghen, Goncalves, Taarabt, Weigl, Pizzi, Grimaldo, Waldschmidt, Nunez.
Subs: Svilar, Vlachodimos, Gilberto, Everton, Gabriel, Cervi, Seferovic, Silva, Pedrinho, Tavares, Ferreira.
Arsenal: Leno, Bellerin, David Luiz, Gabriel, Cedric, Ceballos, Xhaka, Saka, Odegaard, Smith Rowe, Aubameyang.
Subs: Ryan, Hein, Chambers, Holding, Pablo Mari, Tierney, Elneny, Willian, Pepe, Martinelli, Lacazette, Nketiah.
That lineup feels a bit over the top but maybe he wants to more or less win it in the first match
Either way Arteta really is determined to run Saka and Smith Rowe into the ground isn't he?
maybe it's so they get injured and he can then start Willian again...
If he rested them today, you'd be moaning just as much.Quote:

Cedric whacks it out of play.
What a miss! :lol:
What a miss Auba!
Auba :doh:
Is Karen her name or a description?
How has Saka left himself offside there? :lol:
Saka shot, easily saved.
nice work from Odegaard in the buildup
Xhaka starting to work on getting his yellow
how many offsides now...? :rolleyes:
Odegaard went full Ozil though.
should've scored probably
Gabriel header, wide.
Xhaka nearly fucked it up.
Well done Ceballos.
0-0 HT.
not great so far, we need to score at least once in this match
Bit painful to watch this. Benfica parking the bus and we're just not playing with any real cutting edge. I'd like to see Pepe on the left, think we could do with the extra pace.
How didn't ESR score? Offside or not.
our passing is really sloppy
Saka puts it wide.
Good play though.
awful shot from Saka
we should be 3-0 up now
Pelanty to Benfica.
Doesn't hit his arm?
1-0 Pizzi. :rose:
Literally just turned it on as they scored the pel.
Me :doh:
Only saw one very brief replay and looked like bullshit to me.Quote:

What the fuck is he supposed to do, chop his arms off?
SAKA!!!
Wonderful goal.
So well worked.
Me :bow:
Oh fuck off... VAR check.
