Declan Rice, Kai Havertz and Martin Odegaard scored goals as Arsenal cruised into the last 16 of the UEFA Champions League.

Oddly enough, Zagreb’s two wins in the Champions League came on the road — 2-0 over RB Salzburg (with an RB red card) and 4-1 over Slovan Bratislava. They were also mauled by Bayern Munich 9-2 on MD1 and lost 3-0 to Borussia Dortmund at the end of November.

The Gunners beat the minnows 3-0 in the Champions League group stages on Wednesday. After the game, Arteta was asked if Zagreb played the way he had anticipated. He stated: “Until yesterday we didn't really know. We prepared the game, especially with two different formations, because of what the managers have done in the past.

Declan Rice scored the winner and first Champions League goal of his career in Arsenal's victory over Dinamo Zagreb in the Champions League.

The second half started ponderously until Gabriel Martinelli (who else) provided the spark. A sudden burst of pace off the touchline took him into space between defenders at the corner of the box, and his cross was inch-perfect for Kai Havertz to nod home.

Arsenal continue to be linked with a move for Juventus forward Dusan Vlahovic, however, a report on Wednesday night claimed talks with the Serie A side had broken down. Meanwhile, it is claimed the Gunners will face competition from Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea will rival Arsenal for the signing of Wolverhampton Wanderers forward Matheus Cunha.
