It's kinda of a weird throwback tbf that this tournament still has two legged semi finals. I think it also used to have a two legged final and two legs in the early rounds, and I also seem to recall it was single leg semis during covid, but it is still a little bit of a curious outlier.

 

But yeah, I think the second leg would've been in one of the weeks of the Champions League's new extra group stage games, and as Arsenal are in that, the game has to be arranged around that commitment.

QFs had them as 2-legs for quite a while, I think that was only ditched pretty recently.

 

I really like 2-legged football, particularly in later knockout stages.

Should be a decent watch. 

First half was an absolute snooze fest!

At least the update is that Bentancur is conscious after the unsettling looking sight that was requiring nearly ten minutes of on-pitch treatment.

Only seen a 15-second clip but he didn’t look well before the corner was taken. Did they not stop playing straight away either?
