Arsenal 0 - 2 Barcelona
At least Arsenal held on,until the 71st minute before Lionel Messi unleashed his goals on them.
So many thought it would be all goals from the 1st to the last minute of this game.The Gunners proved them wrong.
We have to admit that Arsenal played really well against the talented Barcelona team but the question is will the club be able to bounce back from their 2 goals deficit on the second leg?
Anyway,here are a few stats from today's game
- Arsenal have now lost their last 4 Champions League knockout games at home,they lost only two of the previous 17
- This game was the 1st time for Barcelona to have failed to attempt a shot on target in the first half of a Champions League game since November 2013
- In the opening 30 minutes of this game,Barcelona touched the ball just twice in the Arsenal box while Arsenal have had 11 in Barca's.
- There were just 47 seconds between Mathieu Flamini coming on to the pitch and him giving away a penalty.
- Lionel Messi now has eight UCL goals vs Arsenal
- Lionel Messi has finally scored his 1st ever goal against Petr Cech, ending a run of 10 hours & 11 mins without scoring against him
