Arsenal won on Tuesday against Slavia Prague (0-3, 4th day of the Champions League). Naples and Frankfurt shared the points.
Arsenal’s flawless European performance continued this Tuesday evening with a victory validated by the Londoners on the pitch at Slavia Prague (0-3). Traveling to the Czech Republic, Mikel Arteta’s men logically dominated their opponents to sign their fourth victory in as many Champions League matches this season. Enough to temporarily take the lead in the ranking.
After resisting for half an hour, the locals broke down by offering a penalty converted by Bukayo Saka (0-1, 32nd). One minute after returning from the locker room, Mikel Merino scored the break goal in favor of the Gunners (0-2, 46th) before adding a double twenty minutes later (0-3, 68th).
Enough to seal the score of the match, even if Slavia once thought they could reduce the gap from the penalty spot, but the VAR judged that Ben White’s high foot was not reprehensible (87th). With two points on the clock, Prague is provisionally thirtieth. In three weeks, they will host Athletic Bilbao while Arsenal will host Bayern Munich.
Naples cannot do it in C1
Alongside the London victory, Naples failed to return to success in C1. Crushed on October 21 on the PSV field (6-2), Scott McTominay and his team did a little better at home this Tuesday
by conceding a draw against Eintracht Frankfurt (0-0).
Napoli largely dominated in terms of ball possession (64%) and tried their luck a lot. On the other hand, his precision in front of the cage was disastrous (3 shots on target out of 18 attempts). Opposite, Eintracht stood firm and knew how to resist. This result does not suit either team who, with the same record of one victory, one draw and two defeats, remain eighteenth (Frankfurt) and nineteenth (Naples) in the provisional ranking.
