came across this fancam of Reiss's goal as seen from the northbank:

good angle and surprisingly steady footage, given the emotions of the moment!

Thanks for that one, probably one of the best views of the goal and the aftermath.
So many cameos, The speed that Ramsdale gets there to celebrate, the Bournemouth players on the floor, Sky cameraman getting told to get off the pitch by the ref, Odegaard right at the end, Gabriel on the floor in the area after the goal goes in.
Brilliant

Thanks for the vid, my seat is on on the other side of North Bank, was in line with Reiss shot and view certainly better than mine in terms of celebrations as was buried in other fans!

On to Europa tonight:

Trossard and Nketiah confirmed out as expected, and Jesus back in full training. Tierney is ill, and Martinelli mentioned Vieira is also ill but has travelled (to make sure rest of squad gets it on the plane?) I wonder if Jesus might get a few mins at the end if match going okay as may need him to play a part against an in form Fulham on Sunday.

From Arse.con: https://www.arsenal.com/news/preview-sporting-cp-v...
We’ve yet to lose or concede a goal in our previous four meetings, however this Sporting side is one that has already beaten Tottenham Hotspur at home this season, and have history on their side having progressed from each of their previous six ties against English opposition in the knockout stages of this particular competition.

Both teams enter this game on fine runs of form; we will be looking for a fifth-straight win while Sporting - now boasting a certain Hector Bellerin in their ranks - are unbeaten in their last eight matches, including an eye-opening 5-1 aggregate win over FC Midtjylland in the Europa League playoff round last month.

It must have been epic to be there!!

Kiwior gets his debut today, Partey & Ødegaard rested with Sunday in mind no doubt so Jorginho Xhaka and Vieira midfield and Martinelli up front as Nketiah still not 100%.

Ah the excitement of BBC coverage being limited to the Live text stream, not even radio coverage, they've saved that for Manure

Thanks Arsenal.com have live commentary-forgot they did that >.<

Just in time for Saliba!!!!

Sporting captain Sebastian Coates will miss the second leg in London after picking up that earlier booking.

Free header 1:1

[Radec]

Masters of self destructing at the back by overplaying.
Arteta needs to introduce the term " just fking boot it"

I wasn't impressed with Turner in that first half very nervy and should have came out at the corner, although Kiwior didn't help either just ducking out of the way.

Nelson has been free in space time and again but we just don't play the ball quick enough that side, Zinchenko and Kiwior need to get it out a lot quicker.

Hopefully no more mistakes at the back in this second half.

[Puzzles]

yep kiwior and turner arent giving me any confidence

[nice1two]

Does make me think, i know everyone was/is worried what would happen when/if Jesus/saka/Odegaard was injured but We are completely up a creek without a paddle if we lose Ramsdale

[Wonderman]

Normal service resumes...

[Puzzles]

f me

[Radec]

We'll have done well if we can take a draw back to the Emirates at this rate.

FS Gabi just shoot.

[Cupramax]

We’re making a pigs ear of this, Turner and Kiwior all over the place, FFS nearly another

[Cupramax]

Thank f for that, lucky deflection off Xhaka shot went in.

[Radec]

A lot more solid once Gabriel, Party and Tomi came on and we had a lot more control in the second half.

Decent draw and hopefully can finish the job at home.

[Cupramax]

Yeah, looked a lot better once the cavalry came on, lucky to get a draw as we were looking decidedly sketchy until the subs came on.
