PSV can shock Arsenal despite poor form – Perisic

Arsenal have more than one foot in the Champions League quarter-finals after scoring seven goals in an extraordinary away win at hapless PSV Eindhoven.

The Gunners have struggled for goals in recent weeks – failing to score in three of their last four games – but Mikel Arteta’s side sparked into life in a devastating 7-1 win.

Goals from Jurrien Timber, 17-year-old Ethan Nwaneri and makeshift striker Mikel Merino put the visitors in a barely believable position before half-time.

Noah Lang pulled one back from the penalty spot, but Arsenal scored just seconds after the restart as Martin Odegaard restored their three-goal cushion.

Leandro Trossard added another two minutes later, with Odegaard notching his second and Riccardo Calafiori rounding off a superb evening for the north Londoners with a seventh.

The Gunners became the first away team in Champions League history to score seven goals in a knockout stage match and next week’s second leg at the Emirates is all but a formality

Arsenal can start to look forward to the next round, where they will face either Real Madrid or Atletico Madrid in the quarter-finals. Follow all the Champions League reaction with our live blog below:

PSV manager Peter Boss looks understandably defeated.

He calls the game a “terrible night for us”.

“No chances, maybe two moments in the game. Two moments for us to come back into the game but football-wise, we had no chance.

“Arsenal played well, fantastic. Poor from our side, not at all the football we play normally.

“We had a plan, we analysed them, we thought we could hurt them. But if you look at how we defended, it was really poor. You cannot be successful if you play this way.

“I couldn’t imagine I could ever lose this big [a margin]. We have to accept it, but it’s hard,” he adds
