Ongoing since 2024. Arsenal’s attacking leader delivers unique streak

Arsenal played their away UEFA Champions League semi-final clash, and the Gunners’ striker managed to extend a remarkable streak.

Details: Late in the first half, Viktor Gyökeres converted a penalty against Atlético Madrid and, according to Opta, he has now been flawless from the spot for two years. He has scored each of his last 27 penalties, a run stretching back to March 2024.

We previously reported that the draw in Madrid allowed Arsenal to match their longest unbeaten run in the history of the European Cup/Champions League. The Gunners are now on a streak of 13 consecutive matches without defeat.

Reminder: Julián Álvarez scored in this match and managed to rewrite Atlético Madrid’s European history books.
