## Resource

After last night's nonsense in the Champions League, it was time for some proper European football and some trademark Arsenal control. And we got it! For the first 45 minutes, at least... Luke and Jonny react to a very valuable 1-1 draw away at Atlético Madrid, which – despite all the toilet roll everywhere – featured some really positive performances, not least Declan Rice and Viktor Gyökeres. The penalty decisions ain't even got us mad! But we still reserve some ire for Diego Simeone, don't you worry about that.
