Arsenal effortlessly secured their spot in the UEFA Champions League Round of 16 during the fifth group stage match, showcasing a commanding 5-0 victory over Lens at their home ground.

The majority of goals were scored in the first half. Interestingly, none of the Arsenal players netted more than a single goal.

The scoring was initiated by Kai Havertz, who found the net for the second consecutive match for Arsenal. Following him, Gabriel Jesus, Saka, Martinelli, and Edegor all contributed to the scoreline. After the break, Jorginho sealed the game with a decisive goal.

Arsenal is set to conclude the group stage in the top position, rendering the outcome of the last fixture against PSV inconsequential for the Gunners.

Lens currently occupies the third position, and their chance to advance to the UEFA Champions League knockout stage has dissipated. However, in two weeks' time, facing Sevilla in the Europa League, the French side aims to defend its standing.
