Gyokeres shines, Arsenal crushes Atletico Madrid

Early morning October 22, Arsenal defeated Atletico Madrid 4-0 at home in the Champions League.

Gyokeres scored again after 9 matches without scoring.

In the first half, Arsenal took the initiative but had many difficulties against Atletico Madrid's defensive counter-attacking style. The La Liga representative even almost opened the score, after Julian Alvarez's long-range shot hit the crossbar.

The deadlock was once again resolved by Arsenal with a set piece. In the 57th minute, Declan Rice crossed the ball for Gabriel to jump high and head the ball powerfully, giving Jan Oblak no chance to block.

The opening goal helped the home team play with great enthusiasm, while Atletico's defense showed signs of confusion. Just 7 minutes after the opening goal, Gabriel Martinelli shone with a move into the penalty area, before placing a skillful shot to double the gap.

In the 67th and 70th minutes, Viktor Gyokeres ended a nine-game goal drought with two goals. The Swedish striker took advantage of Erebechi Eze's failed attempt to score from close range against Atletico, before using his stomach to score to seal a resounding victory for the Gunners.
