Arsenal finally reminded everyone the depth within the squad that has been overshadowed by recent poor performances. A string of single-touch passes were connected with perfection to set up Mesut Ozil for the finish.

Middlesbrough came out of the dressing room in the second half with an extra spring in their step. On the contrary, Arsenal seemed lackluster in the first minutes of the second half. Brilliant work from Stewart Downing on the right flank led to a pinpoint cross to set up Negredo for the one-touch finish.
Cue the music. Kylian Mbappé is on fire. The 18-year-old has scored 13 goals in his last 9 starts for Monaco. Up 2-1 a lazy pass from Dortmund defender Lukasz Piszczek was picked off by a surging Mbappé and the youngster was off to the races:
With unfortunate events transpiring in Germany and the Borussia Dortmund vs. AS Monaco match being postponed until tomorrow, all eyes are on Barcelona and Juventus.
Paulo Dybala didn't give viewers or Barcelona time to get settled into the match by opening the scoring in the seventh minute. The Argentine received a pass from South American brethren Juan Cuadrado after the Colombian froze Jérémy Mathieu with some fancy footwork. Dybala's snap shot gave the goalkeeper no chance.
