Arsenal are through to the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals after a composed 2-0 victory over Bayer Leverkusen at the Emirates, sealing a 3-1 aggregate success. Player ratings from the night reflect a largely assured display, with one standout performer praised for an unmistakable air of confidence on the ball, while a single defender was singled out for having been given a bit of trouble by the German side’s forwards. The clean sheet underlined the Gunners’ control of the tie, yet the individual assessments hint at pockets of pressure that kept the outcome in the balance until the final whistle.
