Arsenal must give Monaco respect or they will be punished

 

Arsenal will need to have their wits about them when they take on Monaco next week at the Emirates on Wednesday night in their last-16 Champions League first leg.


When the draw was made it seemed very fortuitous for the Gunners to get a minnow to play against while hopefully avoiding the big guns until later in the completion.


And while everyone expects Arsenal to be victorious they must not let their guard down and become complacent after a run of four clean sheets in a row last month, as Monaco can punish even the best of teams like they did against Nice, Friday night.


With a man down at half-time a Monaco win seemed unlikely until with just five minutes remaining Bernardo Silva latched onto an error and curled the ball into the bottom corner for a 1-0 win.


You can see the late goal in the video below.
