Arsenal have booked their spot in the Champions League round of 16 after a convincing 3-1 win over Inter Milan on Tuesday night. Gabriel Jesus scored twice, while substitute Viktor Gyokeres added a third, ensuring the Gunners finish in the top two of this season’s league phase.
Even before kick-off at the San Siro, news of Manchester City’s shock 3-0 defeat to Bodo/Glimt filtered through, providing Arsenal with an unexpected boost. Goals from Kasper Hogh and Jens Petter Hauge against ten-man City meant Arsenal’s progression to the knockout stages was mathematically confirmed with two games remaining.
Still, a victory was needed to guarantee a top-two finish, and Mikel Arteta’s squad delivered. Both strikers found the net in a composed and clinical performance, leaving the Gunners in an excellent position ahead of the final league phase fixtures.
