Here’s a summary of Arsenal players’ performances from the match in English:
– **David Raya**: Made three important second-half saves, particularly from Gvardiol and Haaland, but perhaps could have anticipated Haaland’s finish better. Rating: 7

– **William Saliba**: Allowed space for Haaland to score but was solid in the second half with a strong defensive display. Rating: 7
– **Gabriel Magalhães**: Left too much space for Haaland’s goal but came close to scoring a winner with a powerful header and was key to Arsenal’s defensive effort. Rating: 8
