Arsenal’s English midfielder Reiss Nelson fights for the ball with Sporting Lisbon’s Spanish goalkeeper Antonio Adan during the UEFA Europa League last 16 first leg football match between Sporting CP and Arsenal at Jose Alvalade stadium in Lisbon on March 9, 2023/AFPPix: Arsenal and Sporting Lisbon could not be divided in an entertaining 2-2 draw in their Europa League last 16 first leg clash in Lisbon on Thursday.
Mikel Arteta handed Reiss Nelson a start on the left of the attack after his showstopping strike salvaged Arsenal a dramatic comeback victory over Bournemouth last weekend to keep them top of the Premier League. Former Liverpool defender Sebastian Coates was booked during an argument in the aftermath of the goal, meaning he is suspended for the second leg next week.
Sporting goalkeeper Antonio Adan did well to deny Gabriel Martinelli early in the second half, and his team capitalised to take the lead. Arsenal were level just after the hour mark, though, when Granit Xhaka tried to find Martinelli but Morita deflected the ball into his own net to leave the game on a knife-edge in the second leg.Mourinho's Roma were good value for their victory against Real Sociedad with Stephan El Shaarawy sending the hosts ahead in the Italian capital from close range after a fine run and cross by Tammy Abraham.
