Arsenal star gets brutal L’Equipe rating despite comfortable win

Arsenal striker Viktor Gyokeres received a low rating of two from L’Equipe despite leading his team to a comfortable 3-0 victory over Lille in the Champions League. Despite Gyokeres’ passing appearing sharper after scoring four goals in four games for Sweden, he was replaced after 65 minutes with only 13 touches and no shots on goal.

The match saw Lille’s resistance crumbling, allowing Arsenal to break through with three goals within seven minutes in the second half. While Gyokeres struggled to create chances, his passing was more composed, offering a glimmer of positive performance. Midfielders Bruno Guimaraes and Declan Rice received a 7 each, while manager Mikel Arteta and goalkeeper Gabriel also earned a 7.
