Arsenal target Champions League glory
April 16, 2025
|Cape Times
ARSENAL face Real Madrid tonight with one foot already in the Champions League semi-finals but with the added pressure of knowing their entire season hinges on the result at the Bernabeu.
-
Mikel Arteta's men last week demolished the defending champions 3-0 in the first leg of their quarter-final in London and are favourites to reach the last four of Europe's top club competition for only the third time.
But all their eggs are now in one basket as they seek to end their trophy drought, with leaders Liverpool almost out of sight in the Premier League.
Arsenal, who have never been crowned European champions, have become used to battling for the English league title - narrowly losing out to Manchester City in the past two seasons.
This year it has been their misfortune to be competing against a Liverpool team that flew out of the blocks in Arne Slot's first season at Anfield.
Arsenal have had chances to put the pressure on the runaway leaders but 12 draws in the Premier League, and just two wins in their past seven games, have cost them.
