Arsenal has recently beat Napoli at Emirates Stadium 2-0, but Gunners boss Unai Emery still believes that their tie with the team is 50-50 for the Europa League quarterfinal. Aaron Ramsey managed to convert a pass from Ainsley Maitland-Niles that helped the team finish off with a strong lead, while Kalidou Koulibaly scored his own goal after deflecting a shot from Liucas Torreira past goalkeeper Alex Meret.
Despite the pressure, an impressive Meret stopped the gunners from pushing their score even further. Napoli, who are currently second in the Serie A, are set to host the Gunners for a second leg at the San Paolo Stadium.
Talking about their recent game and position in the Europa League, Emery said that the first leg was very important for a good result, and that they deserved to win, but that it was going to be difficult going forward. He continued by saying that their performances at home are usually strong, and while they plan to win the match, it still remains 50-50. He added that their current challenge is to remain competitive while away, as sometimes it’s easy for a team to lose its spirit while not at home.
Carlo Ancelotti, boss of Napoli, has said that he still still confident that his team will progress to the last four. The only disadvantage of an otherwise impressive performance by Arsenal is that they did not win by two goals, which would have allowed them to move past the tie.
