Arsenal’s attack against Atalanta was highlighted by one statistic
Arsenal started their Champions League campaign with a goalless draw against Atalanta, but managed to do something they haven’t done in a decade.
Both teams had chances to win the game but Arsenal owe David Raya a point after David Raya made a double save as he saved Mateo Retegui’s penalty and then saved it.
Arsenal defended well, but in what will be a real minor problem they didn’t offer much going forward, which will have to change if they are to get a good result against Manchester City on Sunday.
Gabriel Martinelli arguably had Arsenal’s best chance of the game but fired over the bar from a well-placed Raheem Sterling.
Arsenal’s attacking woes were highlighted by one Squawka stat which confirmed the Gunners’ six shots against Atalanta were their lowest in a Champions League away game for a decade.
