Beaten in Lens, the Gunners rectified the situation by winning in Seville (1-2) during the 3rd day of the Champions League.

The defeat in Lens is (almost) forgotten. Three weeks after their setback at Bollaert, Arsenal reacted well by winning on the field of Seville (1-2), Tuesday evening, during the 3rd day of the Champions League.

Gabriel Martinelli made the difference just before the break, at the end of added time, with a dazzling counterattack (45th+4), then Gabriel Jesus doubled the lead in a superb way, finding the top corner of the Andalusian goalkeeper (53rd) . Nemanja Gudelj reduced the gap (59th), but Arsenal held on at the end of the game.

Mikel Arteta’s team takes the lead in this group, at the expense of RC Lens, held by PSV Eindhoven (1-1). With six points, Arsenal are one point ahead of the Sang et Or, and four points ahead of PSV and Sevilla. An ideal situation before playing the next two matches at the Emirates Stadium.
