00:00Arsenal underlined their credential of one of Europe's most complete sides with a stunning
00:05final victory over Atletico Madrid at the Emirates Stadium. The win extended their unbeaten streak
00:12against Spanish opposition to a record seven matches and showcased both technical brilliance
00:18and physical dominance. For the first hour, Arsenal struggled to unlock Atletico Resolute's
00:24defensive set-up, but once they found the breakthrough, they simply overpowered their
00:29opponents. Victor Jokeres opened the scoring with a scrappy old-school striker's finish,
00:35followed shortly after by a second goal from close range. These were exactly the type of finishes
00:41Arsenal had missed last season when lacking a traditional No. 9. Jokeres had gone nine matches
00:48without a goal, and this performance could prove transformative, restoring his confidence
00:53and giving Arteta a reliable focal point in attack.
00:58Open play goals were equally impressive. Gabriel Martinelli netted after a blistering run
01:05from teenage left-back Myles Lewis-Skelly, who shrugged off three defenders before delivering
01:10the perfect pass. Atletico, known for their resilience under Diego Simeone, were overpowered
01:17physically in every area. Yet, Arsenal's performance was about more than power. Their technical quality
01:24in possession shone particularly in midfield. £50 million signing Martin Zubermendi produced
01:31arguably his best game in an Arsenal shirt, completing 41 of 46 passes, snapping into tackles
01:37and setting the tone with intelligent distribution. By full-time, Arsenal have delivered a masterclass
01:43in footballing versatility, blending physicality, precision and composure. This emphatic victory
01:50sends a clear message to Europe. Arsenal are not just contenders, they are fully-rounded,
01:56intimidating force, capable of dismantling even the most disciplined opponents.
02:01With confidence soaring, they look to set to continue their perfect start in the Champions
02:08League and assert themselves as one of the continent's most formidable sights.
