"Arsenal thrashed Atletico Madrid 4-0 at the Emirates to extend their winning record against Spanish opposition and maintain their perfect start in the Champions League this term. Gabriel, Gabriel Martinelli and a Viktor Gyokeres brace gave Mikel Arteta's men their seventh consecutive win against teams from Spain to improve what was already a Champions League record. All the goals came in 14 second half minutes after Arsenal had been knocking on the door for much of the first period."
"The Gunners exploded out the blocks. They went close just four minutes in when Eze's edge-of-the-box strike took a big deflection, looping up and over Jan Oblak before crashing against the bar. From the follow-up, Declan Rice's volley into the ground bounced over the goal. From there, Miles Lewis-Skelly dragged a left-footed effort wide and Oblak saved well from Saka at his feet with Arsenal probing."
