Arsenal Show Strength and Style in the Champions League

Arsenal once again delivered an impeccable Champions League performance, sweeping past Slavia Prague 3–0 at the Emirates. It was a victory built on structure, confidence, and attacking brilliance. Bukayo Saka opened the scoring from the spot, while Mikel Merino’s brace sealed the win and another crucial Arsenal clean sheet.

This marks Arsenal’s eighth consecutive clean sheet, a club record equalling run that has set Europe talking. Their resilience has become their identity — calculated, calm, and commanding.

The Arsenal Defence That Europe Fears

Mikel Arteta’s tactical precision is turning heads. Arsenal’s defence, led by William Saliba and Gabriel, neutralised every Slavia Prague attack, while David Raya’s awareness between the posts completed another flawless night. Their defensive rhythm isn’t luck — it’s discipline crafted on training grounds and tested under floodlights.

Even Arteta admitted, “Clean sheets aren’t just numbers; they’re our statement.” That statement now echoes through Europe. Arsenal have not only found form — they’ve found belief.
