Real Madrid did everything he could to upset Bukayo jacket.
The tone set the early reducer from David Alab. His missed punishment was followed by a shoulder boat by Antonio Rudiger. There was even intimidating words from Dani Carvajal in his ear when players went into the tunnel in the middle of the time. None of this worked.

He summed up the jacket.
Carlo Ancelotti asked his players to play with their “heads, hearts and ball“At his press conference before the match. But it was Arsenal and their Talismanic No. 7 who have shown these qualities, the young party of age against the European royal rank.

Before the players went to the half -life of the tunnel, and Carvajal tried to rattle the jacket, faith was vacuumed from the stadium.
Even the equalizer, followed by Saka’s great opener, lifted him through Courtois in the intended style of his punishment, could not bring him back. Real Madrid, fifteen times the winners of this competition, with all these history behind them, were brought to their knees.

It was Martinelli who created the coronation moment of Arsenal’s night and after the scintillation break it coldly broadcast the winner.
But a lot of spoken re -assembly He came from the jacket, 23 years of directing the arsenal great in Henry, and now he hoped that this exciting new generation would lead to the trophy.
