Guys, Arsenal had a bad season but in 2020 they were actually back on track, kind of... I think they didnt lose a single game in 2020 until yesterday?! I think Olympiacos can still beat anyone, especially at home. Lets see. Smiley

I feel somehow sorry because of Arsenal.
They have great history and results in the past but now they become just average club like many other clubs around them  
Wenger stayed coach to long and they was in some kind of "hibernation " last 6,7 or 8 years, not up and not down,  somwhere between.
You are right,  after long time Arsenal looked very good and now this happened.
They fight for CL and EL probably was their best chance to secure position there.
Now,  they have to recover quickly and to continue to play well.
They really didn't have luck tonight but it's life.  
Olympiacos is good club but they don't have chance to make some good result in EL.


agree for Arsenal, cannot say that i am a fan, but i like when coach is long with a club
but i do not get it how a player can score goal as first goal by Aubemeyang, and then miss the second, both are on the link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3l8OxbFO7tY

Olympiakos is again in England, this time with Wolves, and Manchester is in Austria, with Linz, in the next round, two duels between spain and italy - Getafe with Inter and Sevilla with Roma, will be interesting

Lol, on a more football note arsenal did not lose the match
Because literally, the europa league knockout stages was recorded in  aggregrate score.

i.e ARS 2 VS OLY 2, OLYMPIACOS goes to the round of 16 on away goals rules, after a 2-2 aggregate draw.
A draw against Olympiacos is equivalent to losing the game for Arsenal.
Even if Arsenal made it, they will not go to far with such a team for sure...

They lost 1-2 after extra-time didnt they? Thats literally a loss in my opinion - not that it matters anyway. Smiley
Yes they lost but he means the total score (first + second matches) was a draw 2-2

Porto, Braga, Sporting, Benfica KO'd from the competition. No luck for the portuguese teams, goes to show how weak their league is.

Arsenal on extra time against Olympiacos LOL most people can't even name three players from the Olympiacos squad Grin imagine getting paid 6 figures a week and then getting KO'd by this team...surely that's not gonna happen  Roll Eyes

Yeah which is why even their stars just leave at the first opportunity like Bruno Fernandes to Manchester United. I mean, Porto actually go into Champions League but become like whipping boys there. I think they need to fix their league and modernize.

And Arsenal happened. To be fair though, their league form has suggested they simply have a leaky defense, and weak mentality. And Aubameyeng is saving their ass time and time again, this time even he couldn't do it though.

It is thought that the Manchester United vs Club Brugge match will be a tough match because 1-1 on aggregate will make the two clubs attack each other.
Then what happened to Manchester United at Old Traford like a demon possessed more goals with a score of 5-0 without reply and Club Brugge was stuck not moving at all, I think this is a surprising match for Manchester United.

Late to the party but Spurs fan here so of course happy in a way that Arsenal lost out at this stage because you know, Arsenal and Spurs;)

Actually saw and so many good teams in here who progressed but Olympiacos will definitely lose at the next stage and so will whoever meet them will be happy.

Still one match to play before full confirmation (postponed).

@swogerino did I not tell you Celtic/United was a very bad parlay to make? Bet on the away team of both and you'll be in much more profit. So many home upsets in Europa!

Arsenal was a favorite for winning the europa league title this season.
IT is shocking that they lost wth this way and now they round 16 is weakened as a strong team is now out.
  Arsenal was no where near a position to be tip as favorite to win this season Europa league,  I hope you remember that Inter Milan is now in Europa league likewise Roma also,  this are the two clubs that I feel might win Europa league this season.

Aubameyang took a great decision not to sign a new contract for Arsenal until he see that Arsenal qualify for the champions league next season,  dude is too good to be playing for Arsenal, he has been scoring week in week out, but the defense keep conceeding, Arsenal defense was so terrible yesterday, Arteta also made a mistake by playing lacazette for so long, he ought to have been substituted early enough for Marti to come on.

Where is everybody? watching Champions League, how Lyon slapped Juve & forgetting Europa League?
Rangers won today game but tomorrow games are more interesting imo :
Man United has to win, i expect 1-0 or 2-1
Ajax has to honor its name although i don't think it will make it..
Arsenal with its laggy performance should try to get a draw at worst!

I do believe in Home advantages, so Man utd, Celtic, Sevilla and Arsenal should do justice and Qualify to the round of 16.

Knockout stages are for dramas, and i think Ajax, Salzburg, Porto, Braga, and Benfica should be able to stage a drama to qualify to the next .

Meanwhile Bar a lackluster performance Inter,  Basel and Wolverhampton wanderers are through to the next round after a 4 nil victory

Like i did mention last night, the europa league or champions league is always full of surprises.

All Portoguese team are out of the europa league. while celtic are also out.

Espanyol had a beautiful 5 - goal thriller but are also out.

The biggest shock tonight was Arsenal vs Olympiacos, arsenal had a goal advantage plus a goal advantage but fluffed both.

I feel sorry for Auba, he missed a sitter, and i do hope it does not taunt him, Arsenal struggles continues.

Wow, Arsenal - Olympiacos, what a finnish of game. When Auba scored goal on extra time, I thought that everything is finnished in this game, but Oly managed to score on last minutes of extra time! Wow, and Arsenal is just being typical Arsenal.
I watched the game. Getafe are not a fluke, the better team went through today while the one-hit wonder got bodied by two spanish teams (Valencia in the CL and Getafe tonight). Getafe are, in my opinion, among the title contenders.

Round of 16 draw will be tomorrow, in case someone wants to know.
Well, I think that Getafe is black horses of tournament, together with Wolves.
BTW, Re-scheduled game between Salzburg and Eintracht will be played on Friday.

This year Europa league is full of surprises. The germans are not black horses though, they are playing vibrant progressive football.
And likewise Getafe, but over time in football. History suggests the team with the goal advantage qualifies.

Lets wait and watch how this small teams handle the pressure that comes from UEL knockouts.

I just want to know whether Arsenal name will figure on the list or not. Also I want to know if they ever get ashamed from their fluctuant performance or not...

Edit: Arsenal scored, Aubameyang hopefully as usual. Few minutes to go!
Last minute goal from Al Arabi so Arsenal is also out of Europa League with this lost good fight back by Olympiacos Piraeus after losing first league at home.
Yeah, unbelievable. Wonder know how many is saying beautiful words about Arsenal from fans and bettors. I had to quit when the other games finished but I ruined my night thanks to Arsenal...

What an epic win for Olympiacos away vs Arsenal - great stuff for Greek football and I am very happy (no matter how much I "normally" hate Oly!). Most importantly: Absolutely not undeserved!
