Arsenal’s star winger Bukayo Saka is buzzing with confidence, backing the Gunners to lift the Champions League trophy this season.
After inspiring Arsenal to a thrilling win over Real Madrid in the quarter-final second leg on Wednesday, Saka, who slotted home the opening goal in the second half despite fluffing a penalty, helped secure a 2-1 victory at Santiago Bernabeu, with Gabriel Martinelli also adding a goal.
The North London side cruised into the semi-finals with a commanding 5-1 aggregate scoreline, having smashed Real Madrid 3-0 in the first leg at the Emirates.
Mikel Arteta’s squad now gears up to face Paris Saint-Germain in the semi-finals later this month.
“We can beat the best teams in Europe at home and away, you can see that,” Saka said in his post-match chat.
“I like to believe that we can WIN the Champions League. I think we can.”
