Solid and inventive, Arsenal cruised to a comprehensive win over Club Brugge in Belgium. Buoyed by two spectacular goals from Madueke and Martinelli, the Gunners continue their flawless European campaign.
- Club Bruges 0-3 Arsenal : Madueke 25’ 47’, Martinelli 56’
With five wins already secured, Arsenal can afford the luxury of rotating their squad without any significant drop in performance. Facing a Brugge side shaken by the sudden dismissal of Nicky Hayen, Arsenal never needed to force their game to take control. After a strong start from the Belgian team in terms of intensity, Brugge gradually dropped off, allowing Madueke to break the deadlock with a stunning solo effort, slaloming through defenders before firing into the top corner.
In the second half, Arsenal accelerated again. Madueke struck once more, completing his brace, and Martinelli sealed the victory with a thunderous top-corner finish for 3–0. Arsenal even brought on Gabriel Jesus, returning from the ACL injury he suffered in January.
With six wins from six, Arsenal puts itself in a perfect position to comfortably secure a top-eight spot while conserving energy for the Premier League.
