Early morning of November 7 (Vietnam time), Arsenal will visit Inter Milan's home field in the 4th match of the 2024-2025 UEFA Champions League group stage.
Entering the match, Inter were the team with the overwhelming advantage. In the second minute, Denzel Dumfries unleashed a powerful shot that hit the crossbar. Then, it was Hakan Calhanoglu's turn to threaten Inter's goal with a shot that missed the post.
After being pressured at first, Arsenal gradually regained control of the game. Both teams played with determination. The match was interrupted several times due to fouls by players from both sides.
It seemed like the first 45 minutes would end without any goals being scored when Mikel Merino suddenly let the ball touch his hand in the penalty area, creating conditions for Calhanoglu to score from the penalty spot to give the home team an advantage before entering the break.
In the second half, both Arsenal and Inter played with dedication and created many scoring opportunities. Although Arsenal had the better game, the lack of luck of strikers like Gabriel Martinelli and Kai Havertz caused the "Gunners" to miss out on opportunities.
Despite their relentless attacks, Arsenal were unable to penetrate Inter's solid defense, thus accepting defeat with a score of 0-1.
This defeat caused Arsenal to fall to 12th place in the rankings with 7 points. Meanwhile, Inter climbed to 5th place with 10 points.
