Arsenal edge stubborn Slavia in Champions League
The Premier League champions were quick to take control of the game, with Noni Madueke and Viktor Gyokeres scoring in the first half to secure a 2-1 win.
In a Champions League encounter at the Fortuna Arena in Prague, Arsenal edged out Slavia Prague 2-1. Noni Madueke and Viktor Gyokeres scored in the first half, with Madueke netting on nine minutes and Gyokeres adding a second in the 38th minute. Slavia, who have only one point from four Champions League games, struggled to create chances, managing only one in the first half.
Arsenal's 2-1 victory marked their return to winning ways in Europe following a 2-2 draw at Bayern last month, bringing their Champions League tally to 10 points from four games. Slavia, on the other hand, have been in poor form in Europe, without a win in the 23rd straight Champions League game, bringing them within one of tying AEK Athens' all-time record of 22 consecutive losses from 1992-2006.
