There's so much to smile about after that first leg against Real Madrid. Declan Rice putting in work on set pieces—who saw those free kicks coming? Saka and Merino ran the show, and Myles Lewis-Skelly looked like a star in the making. Madrid didn’t seem at their best but you can never count them out. A remontada is always in their DNA. The second leg won’t be a walk in the park. Fingers crossed Ben White is fit—could be key if Kiwior struggles or if Timber needs cover.
Arteta’s tactics were sharp and the squad’s energy was on point. Still, Madrid at the Bernabéu is a different beast. The team needs to stay focused and keep the intensity up.
Exciting times. Let’s see how this story unfolds.
