There it is - well worked goal, good finish.

Mr.Nice Guy · 26-04-2018 9:25pm

Sub Njie makes it 2-0 to Marseille!

Another assist from Payet. His number of assists in 2018 is ridiculous.

Quazzie · 26-04-2018 9:27pm

Very important now that Arsenal don't lose the run of themselves. Get the win and the all important clean sheet and it's a very good result.

Forgotten just how good Payet is. Passing is excellent.

Mr.Nice Guy · 26-04-2018 9:39pm

What a chance for Salzburg. Post still shaking after that hit.

ERG89 · 26-04-2018 9:44pm

Arsenal ffs!!

monkey9 · 26-04-2018 9:45pm

Utter disaster that for Arsenal.

LuckyGent88 · 26-04-2018 9:45pm

Classic Arsenal defending.

martyos121 · 26-04-2018 9:45pm

That’s vintage Arsenal tbh. Too often they throw away good positions like that.

~Rebel~ · 26-04-2018 9:46pm

christ... well that was embarrassing.

Each of the three defenders involved successfully made absolute fools of themselves. monreal can't be that far off the line... Koscielny disaster, and Mustafi falling over at exactly the worst possible time - though in fairness can't be too hard on him, just massively unfortunate trying to get back to cover for Kos.

Unearthly · 26-04-2018 9:47pm

Worst defending ever

26-04-2018 9:47pm

Mustafi lol. Arsenal go out.

26-04-2018 9:51pm

Ya, no idea how he didn't get booked for that as was a terrible attempt at one

That's a super result for Atletico in the circumstances.

~Rebel~ · 26-04-2018 9:57pm

Oh Xhaka...

Mr.Nice Guy · 26-04-2018 9:59pm

Full-Time and Marseille win the first leg 2-0. Salzburg can have legitimate complaints about the first goal and being denied a penalty. They also rattled the woodwork in the second half. On a different night this could have been 2-0 to the away side but on the balance of play Marseille were the better side. Payet MOTM with a great display. Bouna Sarr and Luiz Gustavo had great games too. Salzburg's best player was their full-back Lainer.

Marseille favourites to progress now but still work to do. Wouldn't write the tie off yet.

kksaints · 26-04-2018 9:59pm

The Salzburg tie isn't over. They showed enough that they can be still dangerous at home but the lack of the away goal will make it difficult.

Mr.Nice Guy · 26-04-2018 10:03pm

Just saw the Griezmann goal. Hopeless defending from Arsenal.

Wheeliebin30 · 26-04-2018 10:13pm

griezmanns celebrations.

Most Arsenal result ever....

No seriously, I don't like kicking a man when he's down, but if ever a game summed up probably the last 5/10 years of Arsenal under Wenger, it was tonight. Lots of promise, lots of possession, lots of pretty stuff, but no cut or edge, turning into false hope, and ultimately failing.
This was a game they should have won, enough chances to win 3 games.

LuckyLloyd · 26-04-2018 10:34pm

Lovely bit of football justice. Athletico are the antithesis of Arsenal’s pretty yet utterly ineffective nonsense.

DJIMI TRARORE · 26-04-2018 11:30pm

Just seeing arsenal goal,hell of a jump from lacca

5star02707 · 03-05-2018 4:26pm

Wonder if Salzburg can cause an upset tonight they have a good home record

tanko · 03-05-2018 7:51pm

Which TV stations is the Arsenal game on this evening?

Mr.Nice Guy · 03-05-2018 7:59pm

Looking forward to this. Would love to see Arsenal and Marseille reach the final.

03-05-2018 8:16pm

Ah good old Arsenal.

Ulysses Gaze · 03-05-2018 8:33pm

Robbie Savage really is an atrocious co-commentator.

ERG89 · 03-05-2018 8:34pm

Atletico vs Arsenal has been turgid to watch thus far. As I say that Arsenal just create a good chance which lacazette pulled too far wide

Mr.Nice Guy · 03-05-2018 8:37pm

Salzburg vs Marseille not great so far either. Marseille having the better of things but both sides look nervous.

Utopia Parkway · 03-05-2018 8:39pm

Atletico seem content to play for a 0-0 here even though they are at home. Might get caught out yet.

Surely better to have a go at that Arsenal defence.

theoneeyedman · 03-05-2018 8:40pm

That Marlon Dingle is a tough ba5stard at centre back for Atleti

They certainly win the award for toughest looking squad with Costa, Simeone & his assistant who looks like he could snap wenger over his knee like a young sapling

SlickRic · 03-05-2018 8:48pm

Arsenal getting that booking after Atleti's constant nonsense is laughable.

Harry Palmr · 03-05-2018 8:53pm

Who else?

ERG89 · 03-05-2018 8:53pm

Far too easy no surprise with who scored it

SlickRic · 03-05-2018 8:53pm

Ospina went to ground hilariously early there.

Mr.Nice Guy · 03-05-2018 8:56pm

Half-Time between Salzburg and Marseille and it's 0-0. Very little going on in the game thus far. Best chance for Salzburg was a speculative shot that Pele spilled but Marseille have looked fairly comfortable. Been very scrappy and stop-start which is frustrating Salzburg. I'd still like to see Marseille offer more in the last third.

Mr.Nice Guy · 03-05-2018 9:13pm

Bad miss from Germain after a lovely move involving him and Payet. Would have been a lovely goal had Germain been able to find the target.

Mr.Nice Guy · 03-05-2018 9:17pm

1-0 Salzburg! Great run from Haidara who beats several Marseille players and fires past Pele. Game on.

He's always at it.

Mr.Nice Guy · 03-05-2018 9:25pm

Salzburg vs Marseille is a great watch now. Marseille looking very shaky and Salzburg fired up from the goal. Anything could happen in this one. Half an hour remaining.

Mr.Nice Guy · 03-05-2018 9:29pm

2-2 now! It's been coming. Salzburg have levelled the tie. Marseille in danger of caving like Lazio did. It was an O.G. from Sarr from a shot that was initially going wide.

citytillidie · 03-05-2018 9:39pm

That kind of foul i think should really be red

ERG89 · 03-05-2018 9:46pm

Monreal survived a near death experience with that tackle he avoided

Headshot · 03-05-2018 9:51pm

sad to see Arsenal going out in a whimper

Such a gutless performance

Salzburg have been excellent second half!

Mr.Nice Guy · 03-05-2018 9:54pm

Thauvin wanted a peno for handball. It hit the defender's arm but I think it would have been harsh on Salzburg.

Marseille's big players haven't shown up tonight. Payet, Thauvin, Ocampos, Njie, likely will need one of them to step up and be a hero if they are to make the final.
