Mikel Arteta has offered an explanation as to why Arsenal trio Emile Smith Rowe, Eddie Nketiah and Reiss Nelson are struggling for regular game time.

Arsenal are tracking Atletico Mineiro’s 18-year-old attacking midfielder Alisson Santana ahead of a possible summer move, according to reports.

The supporters, aged 28 and 29, were hospitalised with knife wounds after the attack in Rome, Italy at around midnight on Wednesday.

Real Madrid have secured their spot in the Champions League quarter-finals as Vinicius Junior scored in the 65th minute. But just two minutes later RB Leipzig equalised. But thanks to a 1-0 win in the first leg, Madrid had done just enough to sneak past Leipzig. 

City went into the game already ahead by two goals from the first leg, and any hopes FC Copenhagen could claw their way back were ended within nine minutes as both Manuel Akanji and Julian Alvarez had found the net. 

Arsenal put on a dominant display in front of their home crowd to help them secure a place in the Women’s League Cup (Conti Cup) final.
