Arsenal secured a dominant 9-3 aggregate victory over PSV Eindhoven, booking their place in the Champions League quarter-finals. Oleksandr Zinchenko opened the scoring with a spectacular seventh-minute curler against his former club, silencing the away support. PSV responded quickly, with Ivan Perisic netting an equaliser after a slick through ball from Guus Til.  

Declan Rice restored Arsenal's lead before halftime, heading home a Raheem Sterling assist. PSV’s Couhaib Driouech added a late consolation goal, lobbing David Raya, but it was too little, too late. The 2-2 draw on the night sealed Arsenal’s comfortable passage.  

The Gunners now face a daunting quarter-final clash with Real Madrid, with the first leg scheduled for March 8/9 and the return leg on March 14/15. Before that, Mikel Arteta’s side will shift their focus to a crucial Premier League encounter against Chelsea at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday. PSV, meanwhile, will look to maintain their domestic title challenge with an away fixture against RKC Waalwijk on Saturday.
