"Viktor Gyokeres scored his first Champions League goals for Arsenal, helping them to a resounding 4-0 victory over Atletico Madrid at the Emirates Stadium. Arsenal started on the front foot and almost got a stroke of luck four minutes in as Eberechi Eze's heavily deflected strike looped over the wrong-footed Jan Oblak before hitting the crossbar. Declan Rice then sent a bouncing volley just over the target."
"But, it was all Arsenal after that, with Gabriel Magalhaes meeting Rice's free-kick to nod the ball past Oblak 57 minutes in. Seven minutes later, Arsenal doubled their lead, with Martinelli finishing off a lovely, flowing team move by guiding Myles Lewis-Skelly's throughball in off the far post. Gyokeres' quickfire double rounded off the match in style. He turned in a tight space before a deflection off David Hancko helped his strike past Oblak,"
Arsenal delivered a dominant 4-0 Champions League win over Atletico Madrid at the Emirates, with Viktor Gyokeres scoring a brace and Gabriel Magalhaes and Gabriel Martinelli also on the scoresheet. Early chances included Eberechi Eze hitting the crossbar and Declan Rice testing the target, while a quick Atletico move nearly found Julian Alvarez in an empty net. Martinelli had a 36th-minute effort ruled out for offside, and Alvarez struck the crossbar after the break. Magalhaes opened the scoring from a Rice free-kick, Martinelli added a second, and Gyokeres finished with two rapid goals late on.
