The first leg was played in Spain. The home team caught a lightning start and only took five minutes to get into the front line through Manu Trigueros. The Gunners, for their part, tried to control the game, but found hardly any means to generate scoring opportunities. The hosts were safe in the back and were even expected to come 2-0 through Albiol after 29 minutes. This result remained until the break. The Gunners were the more active team after the change of sides, but had to accept another setback immediately. Ceballos saw his second yellow after getting on too hard against Parejo and was expelled from the course. The Spaniards pushed for the 3-0, but missed their chance to take advantage. Leno acted as a sure backing. The opportunist would revenge himself in the final phase of the encounter. After a duel between Saka and Trigueros in the penalty area, there was a penalty for the guests. This turned Pepe into a 1:2 final score. As a result, guests have scored the more than important away goal. The dismissal of Capoue (Villarreal) should not change the result.
The Gunners made a smooth advance in the preliminary round. All six group duels were won. With a total of eight points lead on the second place in the table from Molde, the group victory was very confident. The intermediate round called Benfica Lisbon on the agenda as an opponent. After a 1-1 in the first leg, the second leg brought a narrow 3-2 victory. In the finals of the eighteen, Piraeus had to be beaten. Since the first leg was won 3-1, a 0-1 bankruptcy in the second leg could not prevent the team from entering the quarter-finals. In these, the first game against Slavia Prague was fought 1:1. The second leg brought a more than sovereign 4-0 victory. The 1-2 in the semi-finals created an acceptable condition. Especially the away goal creates a good basis for the second leg.
With a total of 33 goals, Arsenal is the best attack in the Europa League. The defense must have ten goals chalked up. Nicolas Pepe is the best attacker in his own ranks with six goals.
After two winless matches, the Gunners should be able to enjoy a successful experience on the last Premier League Matchday. At Newcastle United, a deserved 2-0 victory was won after 90 minutes. This improved arsenal to ninth place. Ceballos is blocked against Villarreal.
