In the return leg of the 1/8 finals of the Europa League, London Arsenal hosted Olympiacos.
The first meeting between these teams ended with a score of 3: 1 in favor of Mikel Arteta's charges, so the Greek team had few chances for a comeback.
Despite the fact that Olympiacos managed to somewhat return the intrigue to the confrontation in the 51st minute, when El Arabi took his team forward, and eventually won a minimal victory, this was not enough to reach the next stage after two matches..
Arsenal footballers could have repeatedly scored against Olympiacos, but Nicolas Pepe and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang simply did not realize the killer moments. Nevertheless, the “Gunners” continue to participate in the tournament, and Olympiacos ends their performances in the Europa League.
