00:00It's just after full-time here at the Emirates Arsenal, got there eventually, then missed a hatful of chances in the first half, could have been out of sight.
00:07But eventually, two goals from Makai Osaka, I don't know if it's this group as well, Makai have a score, they beat a Monaco 3-0.
00:13Well on their way now into the top eight games of the Champions League.
00:17We have the stats going, it's 21 goal involvements, it's 21 games this season for Osaka.
00:22And in the Champions League, 14 in 14.
00:25So not bad going, is it? Not bad going. I mean, he's the headliner, but aside from him, who are some breath-taking tonight?
00:30Yeah, I mean, I thought Miles Luskelli did really well, you know, big opportunities there.
00:34He might have been a problem position for Arsenal. I thought Miguel Moreno could probably go under the radar,
00:39but that midfield has lacked balance at times, and I think a left footer in there did help things.
00:44And he's probably the most creative Arsenal have been for a few weeks, and he'll probably put them down for midfield.
00:50So, definitely positive for Tetsuya, as you say, he should be in the next round of the Champions League without having let it play out.
00:55You can find plenty more reaction and analysis over on Steinersport.com, and I'll have all the build-up to the weekend's game against Everton.
