Then the focus is on a remarkable last 20 minutes, chatting about the Martin Odegaard miss, chances at both ends, before an incredible flourish in the 6 minutes of injury time. Former Arsenal keeper Emi Martinez brought about much of that extra time, and paid the price with a superb headed own goal from Jorginho's shot, before Gabriel Martinelli sealed the deal. We have a go at all the fun stuff, the celebrations, the recriminations, as well as answering listener questions about protection for Saka, substitutes, Eddie Nketiah, Kieran Tierney, the team developing an edge and LOADS more.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.
