So it's a bit difficult to say Arsenal were ultimately thwarted by the mediocare team, but that's the end of the story of Arsenal's journey in the Europa League this season. Only Lol, people are even too sure that Arsenal advanced to the final this season.
I've said it was a difficult game for Arsenal because I believe Sporting will do everything to score goals. Granit Xhaka's goals were good, but Pedro Goncalves's was absolutely the best all season. Of course it was disappointing home match for Arsenal, tragic after being favorites this season to reach the final and win the Europa League. So now Arsenal only have to focus on maintaining their points advantage in the Premier League by playing well and avoiding defeat. The odds are good, but I think they will definitely be affected by the failure of the Europa League.
Arsenal was last night ousted from the UEFA Europa League by Sporting in a match that they put up a good performance and that's because Sporting gave us similar display but with greater determination and unperturbed resilience and that stunning equalizer summed up how eager they were to win the tie.
Arsenal are are not gonna be happy with the result but their feeling with the result of the match isn't gonna stop Sporting's glory of been the better side of that match.
Arsenal still has a good season to protect and that's by going on to win the premier league and now that they're out of the Europa League is an added advantage
