Havertz is back! German stars as Arsenal seal UCL top spot

Goalkeeper & Defence

Kepa Arrizabalaga (6/10):

Had almost nothing to do aside from pick the ball out of his net after the penalty and then from Ricardinho's header in the final seconds.

Ben White (6/10):

Special night as he was given the captain's armband for the first time. Nice pass to send Havertz clear for his goal.

Cristhian Mosquera (7/10):

Comfortable night's work at the heart of the defence. Rarely troubled and was good on the ball.

Riccardo Calafiori (6/10):

Gave away the early penalty when he pulled the attacker back. Looked a bit rusty on his return. Replaced at half-time.

Myles Lewis-Skelly (7/10):

Good to see him getting forward and supporting the attack, especially in the first half. Created some dangerous moments, including one excellent chance for Gyokeres.

Midfield

Christian Norgaard (7/10):

Solid night. Lovely little touch through to Havertz in the build up to the third goal.

Eberechi Eze (6/10):

Neat and tidy, but it would have been nice to see him have more of an influence in the final third.

Kai Havertz (8/10):

A perfect return. Assist within two minutes and a goal within 15. Linked up well with Gyokeres as well, which was promising. Replaced at half-time on his first start in 357 days.

Attack

Noni Madueke (5/10):

Some good moments with the ball at his feet, but was so wasteful when it came to end product.

Viktor Gyokeres (6/10):

Strange night. Off to the perfect start with a fine goal, but he will be really disappointed he didn't help himself to a few more.

Gabriel Martinelli (7/10):

Tapped in his sixth goal of the current Champions League season, only Thierry Henry has scored more in a single Champions League campaign for Arsenal with seven.

Subs & Manager

Martin Odegaard (5/10):

Replaced Havertz at half-time. Got into some good positions, but picked out the goalkeeper with two headers when well placed.

Piero Hincapie (6/10):

On for Calafiori at the break. Easy night's work alongside Mosquera for the second 45 minutes.

Gabriel Jesus (5/10):

Missed a golden chance and then had a goal ruled out for offside.

Brando Bailey-Joseph (N/A):

On for his Arsenal debut late on.

Ife Ibrahim (N/A):

A special week for the youngster. Signed his first professional contract and made his senior debut for the closing minutes.

Mikel Arteta (6/10):

Made 11 changes and would have been delighted by Havertz's showing, but will have been frustrated by the way his side continuously fluffed their lines in front of goal.
