Champions League: Arsenal’s first-half show sinks PSG
Score: Arsenal 2-0 PSG
Stadium: Emirates
Arsenal secured their first win in the new Champions League format as they overcame Paris St-Germain at Emirates Stadium.
Mikel Arteta’s side followed an opening draw with Atalanta by taking control with two first-half goals from Kai Havertz’s header and a free-kick from Bukayo Saka that drifted in past PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma.
PSG had their moments, especially when Nuno Mendes and Joao Neves hit the woodwork either side of the break, but the platform for victory was established by a dominant first-half display from Arsenal.
Havertz put them ahead after 20 minutes when he beat Donnarumma to Leandro Trossard’s inviting cross to head home, before the keeper was deceived by Saka’s set-piece from near the touchline as he was unsighted in a packed penalty area.
PSG, stripped of the old superstars such as Kylian Mbappe, Lionel Messi and Neymar, mounted periods of pressure after the break as Arsenal struggled to retain possession, but Arteta felt confident enough to give a debut to Mikel Merino, a £31m signing from Real Sociedad, on another satisfactory night for Arsenal.

He’s Irishman, living in Spain, working for Israel and fleecing British patriots to pay for his multiple houses, designer watches, flashy cars, cocaine & hookers.
Over the past year calls for de-escalation & warnings of regional war were ignored.
Governments, like the UK & US, enabled Israel to act with impunity so it can “reshape the region”.
All measures, including a full arms embargo, need to be pursued to de-escalate & protect lives.
London markets made gains on Wednesday morning after an unprecedented missile attack on Israel by Iran that sent oil prices higher and shook global stocks.
Traders and analysts warned of potential disruption to energy exports if the violence in the Middle East widened, saying energy infrastructure across a region that accounts for about a third of global oil production could be at risk

UK Daily Trending stories
Media Coverage
The story is popular in print and online – and is expected to continue to dominate the news cycle as the crisis unfolds and more information comes out.
Trending – Israel vows to retaliate against Iran
A few stories are trending in the UK this morning, from the ongoing crisis in the Middle East to last night’s Champions League action. The newspapers – in print and online – are dominated by Israel’s vow to retaliate against Iran and the conversation around whether Israel is planning to attack Iranian nuclear sites.
On social media, there is more attention on trending sports and domestic news including Boris Johnson’s BBC interview being cancelled following an embarrassing error and a successful week for the English clubs in the Champions League.
Basic fact
- Israel’s Neyanyahu vows to respond to Iran
- Joe Biden says US and allies won’t support Israel attacking Iran’s nuclear sites
- World leaders have told Netanyahu response must be proportionate
- Biden fears US troops will be drawn into the war if Israel attacks nuclear sites
- A least forty-six people killed by Israel in heavy bombing of Beirut last night
The reaction
The story is mostly featured on the broadsheets – with the tabloids choosing royal and showbiz news on their front pages. Online, the tabloids cover the Middle East but the story does not dominate the websites, nor do they feature in a prominent space.
Several papers pick up on Netanyahu’s vow to retaliate, whilst others lead on Joe Biden’s warning to Israel that retaliation must be proportionate. Biden told Netanyahu the US and its allies won’t support Israel in attacking Iranian nuclear sites.
Some editorials look at America’s perceived weakness, with newspapers arguing every time Biden has told Netanyahu to come back from the brink, he has been ignored. Other papers speculate that the Biden administration – which will end in January – fear US soldiers being drawn into the war. There is also speculation on how the US handling of the conflict will affect the upcoming US presidential election.
Several more right-leaning newspapers suggest the British military is too weak to be of any use to Israel, in articles that feel a little more politically motivated rather than anything else. Fears that the conflict in the Middle East could lead to a rise in terror attacks in the UK is another talking point in the media.
Other right-leaning publications encourage the UK and US to stick with Israel and be prepared to fight. Other editorials keep pushing for diplomacy efforts to be ramped up to quell the growing violence.

We live in a world where there has been more outrage from Western politicians and pundits over Iranian strikes on Israeli military targets that didn’t kill people than there has been over Israeli strikes on Palestinian civilian targets that killed over 50 people. https://t.co/SVCjunBhN1
