Arsenal sit top of the table by virtue of goal differential which is a great way to start the week. But there’s a small matter of payback to be meted out to FC Porto in the Champions League tomorrow.
The first leg was a lackluster, foul rampant affair with the home side throwing themselves earthward with the slightest breeze. Arsenal were far from sharp and got punished in stoppage time for carelessly giving away the ball, as Porto snatched a winner.
Now it’s up to the Gunners to exact their revenge. Arsenal weren’t their sharpest over the weekend but still managed to get the result. But the rabid crowd at the Emirates will be clamoring for Arsenal to batter the Portuguese side.
I know weekday games are a tough ask, but I look forward to seeing some of you at Maggie’s tomorrow. Note: because of the time change, the match is at 1pm, an hour later that previously posted.
Best,
Mark
