13 matches without defeat
Football news
London’s Arsenal continues to showcase phenomenal resilience in Europe’s premier club competition.
Details: According to Opta, the draw in Madrid allowed the team to equal their longest unbeaten streak in the history of the European Cup/Champions League. The Gunners are now on a run of 13 consecutive matches without defeat.
This achievement had only been matched once before—between March 2005 and April 2006. That legendary campaign, as a reminder, led the London club all the way to the tournament final.
Reminder: Atletico Madrid’s star sustained an injury in the match against Arsenal and was forced to leave the pitch.
