4th placed Leverkusen? That same 4th placed Leverkusen beat your almighty Manchester City 2-0 AT the Etihad. So when you call them 4th place like it's an insult... your beloved City couldn't even beat them at home. Make it make sense.
4th placed Atletico? That same Atletico eliminated Tottenham AND demolished your precious Barcelona in the quarterfinals. You know, Barcelona — the team your club couldn't get past. So yes, "4th placed Atletico" was actually doing the Lord's work taking out bigger names than your team ever faced this season.
3rd placed Sporting?. That same Sporting eliminated Bodø/Glimt — who humiliated your Man City 3-1 earlier. And before I forget, that same "3rd placed" Sporting beat PSG 2-1. PSG. With all their money and squad depth. Embarrassing route indeed 😏
Now let's talk about Arsenal's side of the draw.
8 wins from 8 in the league phase. Conceded only 4 goals. Then embarrased Bayern Munich — your Bayern — and Inter Milan. You know, the Italian champions. Teams with actual pedigree.
And we did it looking like Champions.
The truth is this: if your team were good enough, they would have been in this final. But they weren't. And no amount of tears will change the scoreline.
Arsenal 2-1 Atlético. Buddapest, here we come.
The route didn't embarrass us. It crowned us. 🔴⚪
COYG. Always.
