Arsenal continued their impressive start to their UEFA Champions League campaign following an impressive win over Olympiacos at the Emirates.

The Gunners came into the game brimming with confidence after their late comeback against Newcastle United on Sunday evening.

Arteta’s men showed they mean business, sealing a comfortable 2-0 victory over Olympiacos in their second Champions League game of the season.

As it happened

Mikel Arteta rotated his squad with Saka, Eze, Timber, Calafiori and Rice all starting tonight on the bench after an impressive performance against Newcastle.

Arsenal started the game brightly and just 13 minutes in, they opened the scoring. Martin Odegaard played a brilliant ball through the defence for Viktor Gyokeres, who shrugged off a defender and fired a shot at goal.

The forward strike hits the post, but Gabriel Martinelli was there to prod in the loose ball into an empty net.

The Gunners kept creating chances and pushing for the second goal but were wasteful in converting them, with Gyokeres missing two opportunities.

Arteta’s men continued with their first half performance in the second half but had to wait till the 88th minute to get their second goal of the game.

Odegaard’s pass towards Bukayo Saka who came in as a substitute put the winger in a good position to strike the ball, which went through the goalkeeper’s legs.

The goal sealed the win for the Gunners as they claimed a 2-0 victory to maintain a good start in the Champions League.
