Yes Rice was incredible but every single Arsenal player was outstanding tonight. Martinelli winning us freekicks high up the pitch, Timber's defensive blocks, Merino's clever assists, Lewis-Skelly skipping through Real Madrid from defence to attack. Wow.

You have to get over the line. It is fine getting into the semi-finals, but you have to go on and win it.
They have beaten Real Madrid and beaten them convincingly. You cannot lose to PSG. Otherwise, you have just got to the semi-finals and lost.

Doing it on this stage elevates you, people will see that as world football, not just Premier League football. Declan Rice deserves that. He's done it in international matches, and played in the top international games there are to play in.
He physically just stands out. He can run all day in terms of his engine, never looks tired, plays all the time and he's got this power about his running where he goes past people. He's starting to add this attacking element to his game. He's not bad at free-kicks as well. You put all of that in the mix and you have a special player.
He's got this humbling attitude and this work ethic that delivers game after game after game. His star quality is his mentality, the way he speaks, the way he sees things.
He doesn't want any of his team-mates to do a job he can't do himself.

Fantastic game of football, arsenal thoroughly deserved the win and totally dominated Madrid. Come on you Gooners.
Anthony - Watching from Sri Lanka.
WHAT A PERFORMANCE! Arsenal played RM off the park tonight I was dubious when Arsenal paid 100m for Declan Rice but that was one of the best midfield performances over 2 legs I think I've ever seen He's scored two worldie FKs in the first leg, made tackles, interceptions, countless runs, passes progressively as well as such an engine he has on him.. even put in an unbelievable defensive header any CB would be proud of! PSG have been excellent but they have some game on their hands if Arsenal can maintain those levels in the semis.

Declan Rice was up against Jude Bellingham and there was only one winner. He was absolutely magnificent.
FT: Real Madrid 1-2 Arsenal (agg 1-5)
Arsenal midfielder Declan Rice, speaking to TNT Sports: "It is such a special night for this club, a historic night for this club. We had an objective in this competition - we want to win this competition.
"We had so much belief and confidence that we had enough to come here and win the game.
"We had it in our mind and we have done it in real life. What a night for the club.
"It is massive. I sensed it before I turned up to the club that we were on an upward trajectory.
"In this competition, we have done amazingly well. We fully believe it and we have full trust in the manager - he is unbelievable.
"Semi-final, it is massive for us and we want to take tonight in."
On Real Madrid's penalty being overturned: "I knew it wasn't a penalty. I had my arm on him [Kylian Mbappe], but I knew it wasn't a pen. I am an honest guy.
"He fell to the floor and I was fully confident it would get overturned.
"In the end we got the job done and it is a historic night for the club."
On PSG: "Top team. We played them once already, but they're a different team to what they were back then."

Arsenal's reward for knocking out defending champions Real Madrid? A two-legged semi-final with Ligue 1 champions PSG.
Luis Enrique's side have already dumped Liverpool and Aston Villa out of the competition so far.

Real Madrid closed the roof tonight and Arsenal have gone and blown it off. North London is red. Spain is red.

Inter Milan
Inter captain Lautaro Martinez, speaking to Amazon Prime: "We will remember this game for a long time, Inter never give up: we have personality, heart and head. We suffered, but we showed once again that we can do great things.
On facing Barcelona next: "It will be an important tie against a great opponent, in the Champions League they have a lot of history. But now we focus on the championship, we have time before starting to think about them."
FT: Real Madrid 1-2 Arsenal (agg 1-5)
More drama in the Bernabeu as Declan Rice thought he'd given away a penalty on Kylian Mbappe only for it to be overturned.

If it is 163 and out for Thomas Muller in the Champions League then what a time he's had in the competition.
The two-time winner has scored 57 goals and registered nine assists along the way.
FT: Inter Milan 2-2 Bayern Munich (agg 4-3)
Thomas Muller made his 163rd appearance in the Champions League, the joint-third most alongside Lionel Messi, trailing only Cristiano Ronaldo (183) and Iker Casillas (177).
But, was it the 163rd and last one?

Arsenal full-back Myles Lewis-Skelly, speaking to TNT Sports: "It was incredible. When you see it [Bernabeu] on TV it is a lot different to what it is live.
"The fans don't make it easy for us. As long as we stuck together and backed each other through the high and lows we would be fine."
FT: Inter Milan 2-2 Bayern Munich (agg 4-3)
Six minutes after Harry Kane's opener, Lautaro Martinez scored for the fifth Champions League game in a row - becoming the first Inter play to do so.

Never in my 55 years as an Arsenal fan would I have dreamed of seeing them dismantling a European giant like Real. Just a shame our 'prize' is two legs against PSG!

RemonTARA Real Madrid! All that talk of comebacks feels a bit daft now eh?

Over in Milan, Harry Kane finished brilliantly to give Bayern the lead in the San Siro.
But Inter weren't done there...

With all the hype before the game around Real Madrid, the comebacks, the history, this game never really felt in doubt, if I'm honest. Right from the off Arsenal set their stall out. They were solid.
Over two legs, 5-1 and the goal is just a give away. Real Madrid haven't opened Arsenal up at all across both of these games.
That's how well Arsenal have managed this game.

Whilst I think rice has been the best player, Kiwior deserves huge praise for the way he's stepped up to replace Gabriel. Phenomenal defensive display across both legs

Declan Rice, he was monumental. He was the best player over the two games by some stretch.

Arsenal remain unbeaten against Real Madrid in European competition (W2 D1), and haven’t conceded a single goal across their three meetings. The Gunners could become the first side ever to keep four consecutive clean sheets against Los Blancos in the European Cup/UEFA Champions League.
Real Madrid’s defeat at the Emirates Stadium was the fifth time they have lost the first leg of a knockout stage tie in the European Cup/UEFA Champions League by 3+ goals, while they’ve been eliminated in the second leg in three of the previous four occasions (the exception being against Derby County in the last 16 in 1975-76, winning 6-5 on aggregate after a 1-4 defeat in the first leg).
Across the 53 games that Real Madrid have played against English sides in the European Cup/UEFA Champions League, they’ve managed to win by more than three goals on just two previous occasions: 5-1 v Derby County in 1975-76 (last 16) and 4-0 v Tottenham Hotspur in 2010-11 (quarter-final).
Since the start of the 2015-16 season, this will be the 16th time that Real Madrid have played the second leg of a UEFA Champions League knockout stage tie at home. Of the previous 15, they’ve only been eliminated on one occasion (v Ajax in the last 16 in 2018-19), and progressed from the last eight in a row.
Arsenal could equal their longest winning run away from home in the European Cup/UEFA Champions League (4 – won their last three). Indeed, the only previous time they won four in a row, the fourth game of that run was a victory against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu (1-0 in February 2006, last 16 first leg).
Arsenal have scored an average of 2.55 goals and conceded 0.55 per game in the UEFA Champions League this season (28 scored, six conceded overall), with both of these being their second-best averages in a single European Cup/Champions League campaign, after the 2.63 scored in 2010-11 and 0.31 conceded in 2005-06.
Despite averaging more possession (53.4%), Arsenal made 115 high-intensity pressures in the final third in the first leg of this tie. This was more than three times as many as Real Madrid, whose total of 36 was the lowest of any side across this season’s quarter-final first legs.
Real Madrid’s Kylian Mbappé has been directly involved in eight goals in eight knockout stage games against English sides in the UEFA Champions League (seven goals, one assist), including five in four home outings (four goals, one assist).
Currently on 28 goals and 21 assists, VinÃcius Júnior could become the fourth different Real Madrid player to reach 50 goal involvements in the UEFA Champions League (after Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema, and Raúl), which would be at least twice as many as any other team (Lewandowski and Müller for Bayern).
In the first leg of this tie, Myles Lewis-Skelly became just the third English teenager to assist a goal in a UEFA Champions League knockout stage match. All three of those have done so while playing for Arsenal: Theo Walcott in 2008 (v Milan and Liverpool), Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain in 2012 (v Milan) and Myles Lewis-Skelly in 2025 (v Real Madrid).
