Crumbs for Trossard
This Wednesday, Leandro Trossard played his 100th match with Arsenal. The problem is that he had to wait until the 75th minute to become a century-old. Without him, the Gunners held their own against Dinamo Zagreb thanks to Rice at the start of the game (2nd) then Havertz (66th). Odegaard finished the job. With these 3 points, Arsenal are almost assured of finishing in the top eight.
Courtois and Real reassure themselves
Seemingly nothing, Casa Blanca had no room for error. But against Salzburg, the Madrilenians unfolded. Courtois had a quiet evening even if he was unable to get a clean sheet with Bidstrup’s score reduced at the end of the match.
A double from Rodrygo in 34 minutes ideally launched the Merengues. Mbappé confirmed his good form at the moment after returning from the locker room with a goal before Vinicius took care of the goal-average twice. Enough to move up to… 16th place.

-Vandevoordt and Openda take over Debast
There was a Belgian-Belgian duel in the Champions League. Already eliminated with 0 points in 6 games, Leipzig of Maarten Vandevoordt, Loïs Openda and Arthur Vermeeren (who joined the game) faced Sporting Portugal of Zeno Debast. Marco Rose, the German coach, made a profitable turnover for Vandevoordt.
The former Genko goalkeeper played the second C1 match of his career. On the other side, the former Anderlecht player was also a starter. And the duel turned in favor of the first. Fifteen minutes from the end, Gyökeres responded to Sesko. Three minutes later, Poulsen, who had just replaced Openda, gave his team victory and their first points in the competition. The Lisbonites, for their part, remain in the top 24 at the last minute (22nd) with a margin of two points ahead.
Engels frustrated
Starting in the Celtic midfield against Young Boys, Arne Engels left frustrated in the 69th minute. The midfielder missed a penalty. His teammates finally found the solution at the end of the match against a team already eliminated. They will be in play-offs.
