Arsenal beat Monaco 2-0 and still entered the Champions League

The Monaco player survived to continue thanks to a good performance in the first leg.

Oliver Giroud opened the scoring near the end of the first half after two consecutive shots.

By scoring just one more goal in a series of dangerous opportunities created during the second leg, Arsene Wenger and his team accomplished an unprecedented feat in Champions League history.

Like another English club, Chelsea, Arsenal did not lose in the 1/8 round.

Coach Wenger is disappointed as time is running out for Arsenal.

The players who disappointed in the first leg all performed well in the first match.

Arsenal came to Stade Louis II with a very difficult task, scoring at least three goals against Monaco, the team with the best defense in the Champions League and Ligue 1 this season.

The home team did not enter the game cautiously because they had a two-goal advantage.

In the 36th minute, Arsenal scored from a good combination, in a situation where Monaco’s defense showed signs of laxity.

Two minutes later, Welbeck continued to threaten the goal with a strong shot in the penalty area, but midfielder Abdenour was able to reach out and clear the ball just five meters before the goal line.

Halftime broke Arsenal’s excitement while Monaco regained their composure.

Faced with the deadlock, coach Wenger made two changes, bringing Walcott and Ramsey onto the field.

In the last minutes, Giroud cushioned the ball five meters away and was punched out by the goalkeeper right next to the goal line.
