“Arsenal” in France received a slap in the face.

In the second round of the Champions League, the Premier League runners-up lost 1:2 to the “Lens” team. The French side finished second in Ligue 1 last season and now have managed to surprise Europe.

“Arsenal” coach Mikel Arteta said after the match that he was not surprised by Lens' game.

“Lens' game did not surprise me at all. I saw what they did last season. They have a very good coach and very good players,” - said the Spaniard.

He also commented on Bukayo Saka's shoulder injury:“It doesn't look good. It was serious enough that we couldn't continue with him in the match, which is very worrying for us.”
