Revenge after three years! Martinelli scored a career high, Arsenal 2-0 Olympiacos

Last weekend's Premier League was described as exciting in two words. The leader Liverpool was defeated by Crystal Palace at the last moment, swallowing the first defeat of the Premier League in the Premier League, while Arsenal relied on the countdown to defeat Newcastle United away, successfully narrowing the gap between himself and Liverpool to 2 points.

Arsenal, with high morale, faced the second round of the second round of the Champions League on this match day, and sat on the Emirates Stadium to face the visiting Greek overlord Olympiacos. Martinelli continued his hot state in this game and opened the first record for the team. Saka ended the suspense at the last moment and helped Arsenal take revenge on Olympiacos 2-0.

Although Olympiacos cannot be compared with Arsenal in terms of fame and achievements, they are not afraid of the Gunners. In the past 12 direct dialogues between the two teams, they have fought to the bayonets every time, and never had a draw. Both sides have achieved a record of 6 wins and 6 losses. The last time they met was in the 21-year Europa League. At that time, Olympiacos defeated Arsenal 1-0 at the Emirates Stadium, and met again after three years. Whether the Gunners can take revenge at home has become the biggest highlight of this game.

After this Champions League, Arsenal has only one day off, and will usher in the seventh round of Premier League match against West Ham United. Arteta also fine-tuned the starting lineup. In the 433 formation, Raya will continue to guard the gantry. Skeley, Gabriel, Saliba and Ben White will build the defense, Merino, Suvimenti and Odegao will be in the midfield, and Trosad, Yorkez and Martinez form the offensive trident. Arsenal, who played at home, pushed forward and besieged Olympiacos after the game started. In the third minute, Martineli received a cross from his teammates in front of the goal. Unfortunately, the header was slightly off and the ball missed the post and went out of the baseline. However, 10 minutes later, Martineli made up for his regret. Yorke carried the defensive player in the penalty area and shot, hitting the post and being bounced out. Martineli scored a goal and scored 1-0 for two consecutive Champions League games in his career, helping Arsenal to take a 1-0 lead. Olympiacos, who was slightly passive in the scene, completed a very threatening shot in the 21st minute. The volley in front of the goal was volleyed by Raya, and Odegao sent a very penetrating straight pass in the 31st minute, giving Yorkle a half-single chance. Unfortunately, his shot was not suppressed, and a anti-aircraft gun helped the visiting team complete the siege.

It is very clear that Arsenal, who is not safe enough to lead by one goal, has not diminished its offense in the second half. In the 54th minute, Merino's top arc front was assigned to Trosad, who was unmarked on the left. The latter directly shot the ball into the far corner, but unfortunately he did not hit the target. In the 65th minute, Trosad dribbled the ball and broke through, which was very exciting. Unfortunately, he kicked too straight and was saved by the visiting goalkeeper.

Arsenal, who wasted a good opportunity in succession, lost the goal in the 67th minute, Taremi's header was saved, and Chiquinho made a comeback shot. Fortunately, the referee determined that the offside was the first, canceled the away team's goal. In the injury time, Saka, who came on the bench, scored another goal, helping Arsenal freeze the score to 2-0.

After this game, Arsenal will immediately enter the preparation stage and will continue to sit at home in one day to face the challenge of the Hammers. Whether they can score all three points and continue to put pressure on Liverpool in the standings, let's wait and see.
