In a crucial match that could have significantly influenced the top eight of the new league phase of the competition, Arsenal hosted the Ligue 1 team, Monaco. This was due to the fact that Arsenal and Monaco had identical records beforehand.

Arsenal’s 3-0 victory was the result of a gallant performance, despite the fact that it was not always the most visually appealing. Saka, who delivered yet another exceptional performance, was the player who caught the attention of the crowd.

The England international scored twice and played a crucial role in his team’s third goal. Despite the intense controversy surrounding whether or not Kai Havertz actually touched the ball, he provided an exceptional assist. However, he appeared to believe that he did.
