Atletico Madrid 1-1 Arsenal - the fans' verdict
[BBC] We asked for your thoughts after Wednesday's Champions League game between Atletico Madrid and Arsenal. Here are some of your comments: Vince : Great performance, great effort, and we should have won this game. Sure, Atletico were excellent for maybe 20 minutes in the second half, but we've got in David Raya one of the best goalkeepers in the world and a defence that must be spoken in the same breath.
Ebere Eze's turn of pace was unplayable and that penalty should have been given without a doubt. More of the same and we'll surely be in the final. Anything else would be a travesty.
Iain : Forget the penalties, we showed tonight that we can completely dominate this team. Sure, they had spells buoyed by the home support, but I've got nothing to fear for the return leg. Sam : Getting a draw at one of the toughest places to go in Europe is not a bad result at all, and I felt we could have won that if it wasn't for some refereeing incompetence once again.
The handball one is a 50-50 for me, but if the one in the PSG game was given, then by consistency, they give this one too. But to not give the foul on Eze as a penalty is inexcusable! How on earth have they looked at that again and decided it's not a penalty?
It's stonewall! Despite that, it is a very respectable result and puts us in a great position for the second leg and hopefully a spot in the final! George : Fairly good performance from us, but the same couldn't be said for the referee.
