Atalanta played to a goalless draw with Arsenal at home. Atalanta and Arsenal didn't have many scoring chances. Both teams played as if they didn't want to score many goals. Atalanta failed to capitalize on a penalty early in the second half.
Atletico Madrid, on the other hand, managed to defeat Leipzig 2-1 in a game in which they fell behind. Griezmann finished the match with 1 goal and 1 assist. Atletico had 3 times more shots than Leipzig but most of them were not on target.
Atalanta was the winner of the Europa League last season and their performance was very great as they had a very more consistent gameplay last season. They’re really deserving to also be in the champions league this season after their great performance last season that earn them the Europa League trophy. I may not be too surprised to see Arsenal drawing this match, they were not playing just with a mediocre team, they needed to put that effort if they really wanted to win that match. I won’t say their performance was poor, they really tried their best because Atalanta was able to feel the pressure in the match and knew they were either not going to win that match easily if at all they want to.
Atalanta really play well against Arsenal. I don't know what's wrong with Arsenal they need to put more strength in their games. The Champions League is not a league where some clubs perform well and have opportunities to win games. Arsenal should have lost all points if Atalanta had not missed the penalty. However, Arsenal's lack of effort may have been due to their upcoming match against Manchester City this weekend. It's just that Arteta was lucky to have a superior keeper; else, they should have lost the match.
Manchester City and Arsenal have lost two point in the ucl, i no Manchester City are coming back stronger in there next game in the ucl because they won't try to lose there next game anymore Guadiola is a good coach so he no what he will do in there next match is mor focusing on the league match against arsenal. Arteta need to look for win that match but if they fail and Guadiola defeat arsenal I don't think the trophy can be for Arteta anymore.
