More of a chance for them to win the NBA finals and the Super Bowl than to win a title in Europe. Stick those bottlers in the Conference League and Fiorentina still beats them 3-0. Guarantee it
Before the game I was suspecting Sporting was going to be thrashed by Arsenal in London, but they pulled out a performance incredible enough to eliminate the EPL leader against all odds. This Europa League has a lot of quality teams.
this might be one of my favorite games ive wacthed. the way both sides played was amazing. i was really shocked of how good the players of sporting are and their chemistry is amazing. i enjoyed watching them play as a team
*Nothing but respect for Arsenal, they gave Sporting all they could handle over the 2 legs and absolutely deserve to go through (but unfortunately couldn't).
@Pako X its fine we need to have enough rest to focus on winning the league while sporting won't win shit. I'm not salty, just relieved those midweek games are done and we get to have rest between games now. We have a short squad and need to add in the summer
@GunnerSol Sporting won't win shit. The next team won't wait till 20 minutes left to put in the rest of the starters, and there will be no freak-occurrence wonder goal from midfield. Arteta thought he could get away with saving a lot of the stars for the league run for one more round, it backfired. Really still should have one even though Partey and Odegaard didn't come on till very late; Sporting did nothing after they came on except their keeper pulled a few good saves. We should've put at least one more in, had plenty of chances - especially the last 15 of regulation and extra time. Learning lessons the hard way; Mikel is still a new coach... hard to realize how young he is to his career as fast as he's taken off.
5:50 beautiful goal 😲 (Puskas worthy!) These types of goals are not a given -- the distance the accuracy and the precision power to not overshoot is world class 👍
What a classic! The tenseness all game was amazing, but the keepers for both sides were impeccable all night. Especially Sporting keeper Adan, who played the game of his life. What I also find interesting is the way we all knew Martinelli would miss, because all game he was not clinical. The icing on the cake though is definitely that unreal goal for Sporting, but also the Sporting manager walking off the pitch at 14:06 like an Avenger like his team did not just play the game of their lives 🤣🤣 what a legend
As it came down to penalty kicks, I knew Arsenal was at a disadvantage, due to the magnificent goalkeeper Adan, he didn't disappoint, I gave him man of the match.
Too bad Arteta isn't Van Gal who saves a penalty goalie on the bench like he did in the world cup with Krul. Karl Hein is a penalty master and should be on our bench whenever we have a possibility of going to pens.
Best result tbh. No one wants to play on Thursday when they gotta play on the weekends, its less rest and with injuries to main players we could lose the league, now we get a week in-between games at best and if we win which I think we will, we get to attract the best possible players to strengthen our short handed squad. Some players gotta go to strengthen. Players wanna join champions usually
Assist to the ref for the incredible advantage played before the Sporting goal. What a game! Hot take but I think the Europa League has had more exciting games than the Champions league this year.
I’ve been critical of this referee many times in the past with his questionable decisions. But credit to him for playing advantage for the incredible Sporting goal!
It's bizarre to me how today's goalkeepers are more valued for their ability to receive and pass the ball with their feet, than for their athletic ability to make actual saves. Ramsdale is nothing special at actual goalkeeping.
Agreed. It's interesting how there was not much criticism towards Ramsdale's bad performance, lost of "he guessed right, but nothing he could do.".......If that was the backup, he would be getting trashed all day, all night, all week.
Love how Arsenal fans are saying who cares about this competition. They cared before they lost. Also funny a striker is the one to miss. That’s his only job
Such a wonderful series to watch. That Sporting goal was absolutely fantastic!! I've never seen a goal like that in my life!! Great job all around to both teams there. At least Arsenal have a chance to be in the Champions League next year.
@Stan Smith almost every team needs a world class player in a certain position to make the difference man! Still the same arsenal..fuk if ccity doesnt catch them. And look at their schedule 😂😂
Did you watch the game? This is football. That's why we love this sport. I saw another game, villareal vs anderlech and very similar. Anderlech had 1 chance they took it. Villareal had at least 10 ultra clear they didn't. Anderlech goalkeeper, amazing, stop everything. Same here. Sporting goalkeeper, amazing. This is why I love this sport. The little team can screw the big one in any single day.
This was a game I expected Arsenal to win by at least two goals given that it took place at the Emirates, so I must say that Sporting were surprisingly firm and equal to the opposition. - Antonio Adan gets most of the credit for the win given the crucial saves he made to keep his team in the game before denying Martinelli from the spot during the shootout - This will be a game that Aaron Ramsdale needs to brush off given the equalizer he conceded (might have felt like a soft goal to give away I don't know), and for not saving any penalties during the shootout (have to say that these were absolute rockets though)
As an Arsenal fan, Sporting played really well. Especially their GK. Honestly I feel it's good that we get a defeat internationally now before we return next year, gives us some good refleciton.
As a Spurs fan (yes, I’m used to the trophy-less period for us), here’s hoping this is the calm before the storm for Arsenal. Class from Sporting tonight
As an Arsenal supporter waiting to relive the glory years and yesterday's of the Invincibles, this was sad and hurt to watch. Take NOTHING away from that Sporting CP goal, though--it was world-class in execution and actually went in!
Always happy to see overconfident goalkeepers get beaten from distance. Not only was Ramsdale too far off his line, he was far too nonchalant backpedaling towards goal to stop the shot, and he paid the price. Fantastic strike and awareness from Goncalves.
If Arsenal had on more of the first team it would’ve been even more interesting to how the game turned out but props to Sporting especially the keeper! It was a great game to watch nonetheless!
What a way to knock out the best team in England! That goal put a smile on every Spurs fan's face. And everyone who loves the underdog story in football. However, it may be a blessing in disguise for Arsenal to be out of Europa. It forces them to narrow their focus on beating Man City for the league. City meanwhile will have one eye on the Champions League which is the bigger prize for them anyway. We may look back on this game as the day that Arsenal wrapped up the title.
Those calling Arsenal average, sure we didn't have our best game but we had good chances, we just came up against Adan who had a magnificent game in goal. Doesn't make us trash. When Barca was the best team in the world they used to lose to Rubin Kazan and Celta Vigo in the champions league and La Liga respectively but no one called Barca shitty. To be honest I wasn't even sad because I rather we win the prem for the first time in 19yrs as this is our good chance and given our latest injuries to the main players, I rather we just focus on the prem which was hard when we play in Europe 2 days before each other fixture with injuries to Jesus, Partey and co. The goal is to head back to the champions league with no issues. I rather we win the prem than win the europa and lose the prem. Now city has more to worry about than us 😂
You know what people are noticing that Sporting’s goal was caused by a mistake of Xhaka….one reason and it’s that Jorginho passed it to him and he passed it back by just thinking and not lifting up his head and sees that Jorginho is struggling and 3 sporting players where with Jorginho
Credit to Sporting Lisbon for playing their game and scoring a spectualar goal when winning the game on penalties down to 10 men... We were not at the races today and don't deserve the right to play... We were slow and labourous and without ideas all game long... And hopefully, Sporting wins Europa League and we have to focus on the Premier League now...
I am a benfica fan , so that means I HATE sporting . But I was rooting for them so hard yesterday . They did an amazing job , and I hope they get more recognition as well as the whole Portuguese league
Disappointing loss for Arsenal but at least they now can focus on the Premier League. GG for sporting btw they played very, very good. Also that goal from sporting was beautiful like damn
We played a 4-4-2 to start and then moved to a 3-4-3 to match Sporting after the injuries. Never really looked comfortable in either of those formations. In extra time we finally moved to a 4-3-3 and finally started plying!!
I don't blame Ramsdale for that goal as much as I do the players who got dispossessed. They had a few good options and let it slip yet all Trossard had to do was chip the ball on the pass back. You hardly see players chip the keeper anymore. Why I'm a big proponent of training your offense with versatile options when you have a shot at goal avoids an extra-time battle.

Give that Sporting goalie a raise. What a game he had!
My thoughts exactly!
That’s Adan. He used to be in our youth system.
That's the man of the match, Adan is the best goalie I've seen so far.
He’s definitely getting a big bonus lol
Casillas used to be his sub
That Sporting goal was insane!
Tribute to Ronaldo’s goal against porto in 08 lol
I hate Arsenal but i wish they had won here.
Arsenal trying to be all cheeky neigh the tiki taka
This match felt like an early 2000s champions league game, intensity,a lot of shots from outside the box and an insane goal , it had it all
You’re right
It felt like 2005 champions league
2019 Champions League matches, especially Tottenham vs Ajax & Manchester City were better.
The sporting goalie had one of the best performances I have ever seen. Man of the match easily.
YES
It’s definitely up there, right next to Courtois’ CL Final performance
Repent to Jesus Christ “Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil.” Proverbs 3:7 NIV
I’m really sad for Arsenal. But that Sporting Lisbon goal has to be the best goal I have seen all year. 🤯
Don't be sad for Arsenal 😅
They would lost the league title
Arsenal weak
Sad? Lol
What happened to Arsenal winning Europa League, Super Bowl, Stanley Cup and NBA finals?
Next year mate
Going for the NBA finals rn
More of a chance for them to win the NBA finals and the Super Bowl than to win a title in Europe. Stick those bottlers in the Conference League and Fiorentina still beats them 3-0. Guarantee it
Lmfaooo mans said super bowl, nba finals 😂😂💀
@ttangerine sporting is better than fiorentina
Adan had the game of his life. Unreal saves
Genuinely one of the best goalkeeping performances I’ve ever seen. Hats off to Adan.
What a performance by the sporting goalie. MVP
he has a name
Great performance but I thought there was a penalty for France
@Military junkie no there was a penalty for Argentina
Before the game I was suspecting Sporting was going to be thrashed by Arsenal in London, but they pulled out a performance incredible enough to eliminate the EPL leader against all odds. This Europa League has a lot of quality teams.
Oh United is next.they look like the strongest but I feel like they will choke
You must write introductions for Wikipedia.
Why would you call Arsenal a leader? Relegation bound club
@Olalekan Feyisetan because they are the league leaders olaleklown
@Jeetuni Temporarily
this might be one of my favorite games ive wacthed. the way both sides played was amazing. i was really shocked of how good the players of sporting are and their chemistry is amazing. i enjoyed watching them play as a team
Nothing but respect for Sporting, they gave Arsenal all they could handle over the 2 legs and absolutely deserve to go through.

@Pako X
Arsenal had more offsides that I thought it was the sidemen playing.
Very funny...
more like the offsidemen....
@FPL Hoby Looks like someone got it 😂
Grammar is important kiddos
5:52, What a goal 💚
5:45
Its a butcher knife in the heart. Sorry Arsenal .
5:50 beautiful goal 😲 (Puskas worthy!) These types of goals are not a given -- the distance the accuracy and the precision power to not overshoot is world class 👍

“Keepers for both sides were impeccable” Ramsdale gets caught from the hallway line😂😂😂
@Brian Aguilar he had a great save after the goal, a real strong body block. but the positioning on the goal🫣
tf are you talking about, Ramsdale got chipped from midfield and failed to keep out a pen he had both gloves on..
As it came down to penalty kicks, I knew Arsenal was at a disadvantage, due to the magnificent goalkeeper Adan, he didn't disappoint, I gave him man of the match.
Too bad Arteta isn't Van Gal who saves a penalty goalie on the bench like he did in the world cup with Krul. Karl Hein is a penalty master and should be on our bench whenever we have a possibility of going to pens.
That last penalty had horsepower 🐎
I thought the same! He hit it with emphasis!!
From the run up you could tell he was gonna blast that into the net🫡
Bruh not even Prime Buffon could have saved that 😂
Every single sporting player hit it like that. Their trainers must tell them to stop over complicating and just hit the shit.
@Ezemdi Anosike emphasis!
Arsenal fan here,that was one hell of a match,sporting earned that. Fair play. Hopefully we stay focused for league 🙏
Well said. I'm a Stoke fan but I'm really rooting for Arsenal in the Prem.
Best result tbh. No one wants to play on Thursday when they gotta play on the weekends, its less rest and with injuries to main players we could lose the league, now we get a week in-between games at best and if we win which I think we will, we get to attract the best possible players to strengthen our short handed squad. Some players gotta go to strengthen. Players wanna join champions usually
Arsenal is not going to win anything 🙄🙄😂
@jay okoh you can’t be that clueless😂
No, City needs to win 3pl in row to complete the Triple. Next year tho...
That Sporting goal was so perfectly placed... Crazy
That Sporting goal was unbelievable! Arsenal bottled this today but credit to Sporting they were the better team during these two legs
Sporting goalie was motm plus a wonder goal to tie it up. Not sure I'd say sporting were better tonight, Arsenal a bit unlucky.
@Sean Garvey what about both gifte goals from ref in first leg for arsenal
@Sean Garvey nah bro as much as sporting were good we were poor! Why was Viera on for 100 minutes
@David De Sousa The ref even gave red card to the other team. Arsenal bottled it
Assist to the ref for the incredible advantage played before the Sporting goal. What a game! Hot take but I think the Europa League has had more exciting games than the Champions league this year.
This week's CL games weren't very exciting.
that sporting equalizer was actually insane. probably one of the best goals of the season
What a goal by Pedro G. The vision, power, and accuracy- so exciting to watch!
I’ve been critical of this referee many times in the past with his questionable decisions. But credit to him for playing advantage for the incredible Sporting goal!
Antonio Adán played out of his mind! What a game for him!
Are we not gonna talk about how Ramsdale fell the right way on every single penalty and still managed to save not a single one
Glad someone else noticed
Yeah that was a bad performance
It's bizarre to me how today's goalkeepers are more valued for their ability to receive and pass the ball with their feet, than for their athletic ability to make actual saves. Ramsdale is nothing special at actual goalkeeping.
Agreed. It's interesting how there was not much criticism towards Ramsdale's bad performance, lost of "he guessed right, but nothing he could do.".......If that was the backup, he would be getting trashed all day, all night, all week.
@Jeffrey Bruno Yep. But still, it's kinda impressive to fail as badly as Ramsdale did. Reminds me of the "Mission failed successfully" meme.
The goalie for Lisbon had an insane game 🔥 that long shot goal was crazy‼️
Love how Arsenal fans are saying who cares about this competition. They cared before they lost. Also funny a striker is the one to miss. That’s his only job
COPEnal 🤣
Assna for a reason
Such a wonderful series to watch. That Sporting goal was absolutely fantastic!! I've never seen a goal like that in my life!! Great job all around to both teams there. At least Arsenal have a chance to be in the Champions League next year.
Massive result* for Sporting.. but Arsenal really need to step up their game if they want to play good Champions League football next season
It’s the subs mate
They need a world class centerback and a world class striker if they plan on competing in the Champions League
They want premier league it’s more easy to win
@Stan Smith almost every team needs a world class player in a certain position to make the difference man! Still the same arsenal..fuk if ccity doesnt catch them. And look at their schedule 😂😂
@Kyle Mutti subs ? That was not the subs lmao
Love how English media is protecting Arsenal and not making a big deal about how much of an embarrassment this loss is
Did you watch the game? This is football. That's why we love this sport. I saw another game, villareal vs anderlech and very similar. Anderlech had 1 chance they took it. Villareal had at least 10 ultra clear they didn't. Anderlech goalkeeper, amazing, stop everything. Same here. Sporting goalkeeper, amazing. This is why I love this sport. The little team can screw the big one in any single day.
Ugarte played an amazing game. That Bentancur-Valverde-Ugarte trio would be insane for uruguay.
Both teams were evenly matched which what you love to see
This was a game I expected Arsenal to win by at least two goals given that it took place at the Emirates, so I must say that Sporting were surprisingly firm and equal to the opposition. - Antonio Adan gets most of the credit for the win given the crucial saves he made to keep his team in the game before denying Martinelli from the spot during the shootout - This will be a game that Aaron Ramsdale needs to brush off given the equalizer he conceded (might have felt like a soft goal to give away I don't know), and for not saving any penalties during the shootout (have to say that these were absolute rockets though)
Sportings goal put chills up my spine 🥶
Adan played out of his freaking mind!!! What an incredible performance! Omg
That goal was masterclass. Had me clinching my bullocks mate 😂
They should've kept Turner in goal like they did every game leading up to this 🤦♂
I'm surprised they didn't at least put Turner in for the PK's. He's extremely good at that.
For sporting to play this good against arsenal, one of the best teams in the world right now if not the best ,they deserve it
Holy crap was a superb goalkeeper today for Sporting!
My favorite player, Holy Crap. 😂
That goal from sporting is 👌..🔥
U won’t see goal like this anytime soon more especially scoring on such a high profile team…… was genus
As an Arsenal fan, Sporting played really well. Especially their GK. Honestly I feel it's good that we get a defeat internationally now before we return next year, gives us some good refleciton.
THAT HAS TO BE THE BEST GOAL IVE SEEN AGAINST A RIVAL HOLD THAT ARSENAL!!!!!
As a Spurs fan (yes, I’m used to the trophy-less period for us), here’s hoping this is the calm before the storm for Arsenal. Class from Sporting tonight
As an Arsenal supporter waiting to relive the glory years and yesterday's of the Invincibles, this was sad and hurt to watch. Take NOTHING away from that Sporting CP goal, though--it was world-class in execution and actually went in!
What an awesome goal from Sporting. Had me like 😮
What a banger by Sporting reminds me of Wayne Rooney
Juninho
"REMEMBER THAT NAME!"
Viva o Sporting! Muito parabens! From a Manchester United fan!
Always happy to see overconfident goalkeepers get beaten from distance. Not only was Ramsdale too far off his line, he was far too nonchalant backpedaling towards goal to stop the shot, and he paid the price. Fantastic strike and awareness from Goncalves.
What a ball from Jorginho, those used to come once in a blue moon for chelsea
That Sporting goal OMG 😲
This could have been 3-3 by FT both keepers saving incredible shots
Adan just turned into Superman. Wow!! Unreal saves
Great game,congrats Sporting
It seems we were second best in this match. All I see was a lot of turnovers by Arsenal. Their goalkeeper was excellent.
If Arsenal had on more of the first team it would’ve been even more interesting to how the game turned out but props to Sporting especially the keeper! It was a great game to watch nonetheless!
They were on the same level... terrific game
Matt turner would never let that in🤣
Dude that's goal of the tournament for sure. Absolutely brilliant from Lisbon player.
Classic game for both teams. Arsenal is a hot team I see; we can’t blame Martineli , it was tension!!
Very good match, I'm not a fan of penalties, both teams played an entertaining game
Turner and Tierney deserved to start this game.
What a way to knock out the best team in England! That goal put a smile on every Spurs fan's face. And everyone who loves the underdog story in football. However, it may be a blessing in disguise for Arsenal to be out of Europa. It forces them to narrow their focus on beating Man City for the league. City meanwhile will have one eye on the Champions League which is the bigger prize for them anyway. We may look back on this game as the day that Arsenal wrapped up the title.
absolutely fantastic goal from Sporting. Better team won and moved on
That keeper played like his family were taken hostages. 10/10
What a genius call by the ref to allow them to play on. Easy foul call but he let them go? Amazing
Antonio Adan suddenly turned into Prime Iker Casillas. What a performance!
Those calling Arsenal average, sure we didn't have our best game but we had good chances, we just came up against Adan who had a magnificent game in goal. Doesn't make us trash. When Barca was the best team in the world they used to lose to Rubin Kazan and Celta Vigo in the champions league and La Liga respectively but no one called Barca shitty. To be honest I wasn't even sad because I rather we win the prem for the first time in 19yrs as this is our good chance and given our latest injuries to the main players, I rather we just focus on the prem which was hard when we play in Europe 2 days before each other fixture with injuries to Jesus, Partey and co. The goal is to head back to the champions league with no issues. I rather we win the prem than win the europa and lose the prem. Now city has more to worry about than us 😂

That goalie for Sporting CP had a hell of game!!!
Sniper goal from Sporting. Golazo
This game showed me that Arsenal’s first team and Arsenals second team are leagues apart
I am a benfica fan , so that means I HATE sporting . But I was rooting for them so hard yesterday . They did an amazing job , and I hope they get more recognition as well as the whole Portuguese league
Pain watching 2 starting players subbed off due to injury. Glad to see Jesus back on the pitch!
This game took a lot out of Arsenal. Wouldn’t be a surprise if they drop points against Crystal Palace on Sunday…
Great game. Congratulations to Sporting. Now Arsenal focus on Premier League.
Wow, what a goal!
The news reporter couldn't stop talking abt Jorginho's pass🤣😂
Disappointing loss for Arsenal but at least they now can focus on the Premier League. GG for sporting btw they played very, very good. Also that goal from sporting was beautiful like damn
Lol 😂
As a Man Utd fan… let’s go Sporting!!!!!!! 😂
Goncalves’ goal might be a Puskas winner given the occasion my lord
Not a compare to Nuno Santos against Boavista
Nah he'll be robbed probably by some undeserving winner instead
@Festivalkyrie yeah probably robbed by a tap in by Messi vs a 3rd division team in the French Cup 4th round.
1:33 Man said "brought down well" as the replay shows the most blatant handball you will see
Wow
To knock out the favorites to lift the Europa thats an accomplishment in itself bravo 👏 ..SCP
THAT GOALKEEPERRRRRRRR 😳😳😳😳
We played a 4-4-2 to start and then moved to a 3-4-3 to match Sporting after the injuries. Never really looked comfortable in either of those formations. In extra time we finally moved to a 4-3-3 and finally started plying!!
Arsenal really fought for this game, good job guys, we will get them Next time
Small coach like Arteta underestimated a big team like Sporting lol. They made him pay for it
Gotta feel for ramsdale he got every side correct
Now this was a great match hopefully we get a few more by the end of the tourney
I'm eager to see the upcoming star Franco Israel play for Sporting, but Adan surely is making it impossible with his performances.
Sporting goal ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ what a goal .
All thing considered, I’d be completely ok with this result but for Turner not being the one with the chance to make THAT save, let alone a single pk.
love seeing trincao at his best again
I don't blame Ramsdale for that goal as much as I do the players who got dispossessed. They had a few good options and let it slip yet all Trossard had to do was chip the ball on the pass back. You hardly see players chip the keeper anymore. Why I'm a big proponent of training your offense with versatile options when you have a shot at goal avoids an extra-time battle.
Agree on Ramsdale - sloppy passing and a perfect kick. Sporting's Edwards should have chipped at 7:40 - would have been easy.
@Larry Johnson yup
GG Sporting. Deserved to win. Go on to win this now!
Man Sporting plays some beautiful football. Might become their fan
Justice has been served, for that second Arsenal goal in the first leg that should’ve been ruled a foul when Saka clipped the sporting players leg
