Mar 12, 2024 at 07:03 PM ETLONDON — Arsenal’s 14-year wait for a spot in the Champions League quarterfinals is over, thanks largely to David Raya's penalty saves.
And it was a massive moment for Raya, who was brought in last summer to replace Aaron Ramsdale as Arsenal's No. 1 — a decision that has been frequently questioned by the club's supporters this season. Barcelona also reached the quarterfinals with a 3-1 win over Napoli in Tuesday's other game to advance 4-2 on aggregate.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta now has a chance to do what Wenger never could — win Europe's biggest trophy. But the hosts did have a couple of chances in the first half, with striker Evanilson shooting narrowly wide from outside the area in the 16th after Arsenal gave the ball away and then drawing a good save from Raya from the center of the area in the 22nd.
Gabriel Jesus nearly scored straight after coming on in the 83rd minute with a shot that nearly snuck between Costa’s legs but deflected out for a corner.
