Heartbreak for Kai Havertz. Scores a brilliant second-half equalizer for Germany, but they fall 4-3 on penalties to a stubborn Paraguay side. ๐ฉ๐ช๐
Off the bench to score a dramatic, late winning goal for Brazil against Japan (2-1). Star boy behavior on the biggest stage. Last-16 secured! โ๏ธ๐ #COYG#WorldCup2026
๐ Arsenal have initiated fresh contact for Lille's 18-year-old midfield revelation Ayyoub Bouaddi. Andrea Berta wants to strike a ยฃ60M deal before his World Cup hype inflates his price tag any further. Massive talent. ๐ซ๐ท #AFC#Transfers
๐ง๐ท Bruno Guimarรฃes turns 29 in November. Arsenal are prepping an ยฃ80M second bid. With Arteta's usual focus on younger profiles, is Bruno the exception we must make to instantly defend our title? Or is 29 too old for that money? Settle it. ๐ #AFC

Honestly, hearing Viktor Gyรถkeres say the pitch at Emirates Stadium was too dry after the game just sounds like a weak excuse.
Your team plays on the same pitch for 90 minutes. One side finds solutions, the other finds reasons. Football can be brutal like that.
This team has quality, this team has talent, but mentality and consistency are still the final hurdle.
Title contenders? Yes.
Champions? Not yet.
The reaction now matters more than the result. ๐โฝ
Today was horrible. No sugarcoating it.
One of the worst performances from Arsenal Football Club this season when it matters most. When pressure rises, the level dropped, and thatโs what frustrates fans the most.
