Arsenal vs Sporting Lisabona

A goalless second leg at the Emirates was enough for Arsenal to progress to the Champions League semifinals. The Gunners defended their first-leg lead with composure, though Eberechi Eze came closest, forcing a sharp save from Rui Silva with a first-half attempt. It was a tight, cautious affair — no goals, no cards and no penalties. Victor Gyökeres had Sporting CP's best chance, only to be denied by Arsenal's defence. Geny Catamo was lively on the flank in the second half, while Kai Havertz — hero of the first leg — came on as a substitute but couldn't add to his tally. Arsenal advance 1-0 on aggregate and will now face Atletico Madrid in the semifinals — their second consecutive last-four appearance in the competition. For Sporting CP, it ends a memorable run just short of a first-ever European semifinal.
