Champions League: Like a chess match – Lookman reflects on 0-0 draw with Arsenal

by · Daily Post

Atalanta winger, Ademola Lookman, has looked back at their draw with Arsenal and compared it with “a chess match”.

The two teams played out a 0-0 draw in their first Champions League game of the season on Thursday night.

The hosts had a great chance to take the lead in the second half, but Mateo Retegui saw his penalty saved by David Raya.

“We had a plan and we were unfortunate not to score. We will take the positives out of it and move.

“It was kind of a chess match.

“Obviously, they are one of the top teams and we matched them tonight.

“We’ll take the draw. Onto the next,” Lookman said.
