Arsenal and Atlético Madrid are both chasing their first Champions League trophy in 2026, with the pair facing off in a shootout at the Emirates Stadium, where a spot in the final is at stake.

The Gunners were content with their night’s work in the Spanish capital, but Mikel Arteta felt his team ought to have left the Metropolitano with a potentially decisive advantage.

The two teams struck from the spot on either side of half-time, and Atléti were in the ascendancy heading into the first leg’s final act. However, it was the away side who saw their chance to score the game’s third goal snatched away by the VAR, who helped convince referee Danny Makkelie to reverse his awarding of an Arsenal penalty for Dávid Hancko’s trip of Eberechi Eze.

Still, the Gunners are favorites to reach their first Champions League final in 20 years, and Saturday’s feel-good victory over Fulham has helped ease the tension in north London. There’s finally a sense that this team are relishing and embracing the pressure, standing them in good stead for Tuesday’s game against a streetwise Atléti team that will doubtless pivot to dark arts.

Here‘s how to tune into the second leg live on TV.

Arsenal’s schedule quietens down before that, especially compared to Premier League title rivals Manchester City. The Gunners are next in action against the relegation-threatened West Ham United on Sunday afternoon.

Atléti, meanwhile, are pretty much locked into fourth spot in La Liga after winning back-to-back games. They face sixth-place Celta Vigo this weekend.
