The Gunners, who will play in Paris on Wednesday the return of the Champions League semifinal, take the lead with the usual Rice but lose 2-1. Ok Aston Villa and Leicester, equal between Everton and Ipswich
If Arsenal wants the Champions League final, Wednesday in Paris will have to be much, much better than what was with Bournemouth. Against the Cherries at the Emrates, on the 35th day of premier crushed between the two European semifinals, he ends with a sensational comeback, a bad 2-1 that the art of Arte collects in the second half after dominating for a long time. And with the mockery of having used all the owners for this championship match with less meaning of the return with the PSG. Arsenal gave up before on the field, just what will not have to do at the Parco dei Principi against PSG. To overturn the 1-0 of the first leg, the last thing that matters in the Gunners season, will first pass everything from that mental estate that failed against Bournemouth.

The defeat also means that the art of Arte will have to look at her shoulders in the last 3 days. The Gunners are second, but the City remains at -3 and the Newcastle by hovering Brighton tomorrow could go to -2. For now, Arte is more interested in understanding how his have thrown a game that have checked for over an hour and until that point widely deserved to win. Declan Rice, author at the 34th minute of the goal of the advantage Gunners (nice way to celebrate his 100th match with the club), confirmed the most fit man and one of those for which the Paris comeback must pass. Saka and Martinelli also well, also excellent Saliba, an almost perfect leader in the center of defense. With Party, absent for disqualification in the first act with PSG, in front of the defense, Arsenal is definitely another team. Or at least it was until 67 ‘, when Dean Huijsen with a very long side shot from the newlyntrated Semeryo (better than a cross) drew the game. There the Arsenal sat and came out the desire of Europe of the Cherries, who will no longer be the team that until mid -February dreamed of a place among the first 4 but still in the sights the eighth place that could apply the Conference League. Evanilson’s goal in the 75th minute, long controlled by the Var who, however, does not find “decisive evidence” that the Brazilian center forward has touched a Tavernier head bank with his hand, brings the team of Iraola to 53, in front of Fulham and Brighton. Perhaps the victory is too much as far as the Arsenal dominated the first hour of play, but the Bournemouth at least tried and believed it, even when it seemed that the second goal should arrive at any moment. The Gunners, beaten with the owners engaged in 90 ‘with high voltage, wonder how to make Wednesday to be better than the PSG.

The Aston Villa relaunches its race to the Champions League, folding Fulham 1-0 at Villa Park. Youri Tielemans decides, and his header at 12 ‘on McGinn’s corner kick sends Emery’s team at 60 points, momentarily on par with Chelsea and Nottingham Forest in fifth place. The Villans were returning from the defeat with the City (then followed to the Ko with the Palace in the FA CUP semifinal) who had put them in a position to win every game from here to the end (Bournemouth, Tottenham and Man United the next opponents) to hope to close in the first 5 challenges on the Saturday of the 35th day, the liquid Leicester 2-0 in the challenge in the challenge in the challenge between the challenge between the challenge relegated, finding the victory he missed from January 26 (1 even and 10 ko since then). The other relegated, the IPSWICH, reassembles from 0-2 to 2-2 Everton to Goodison Park: David Moyes’ team has won only one of the last 10 games.
