Quarter-final crushing | Slavia Prague 0-4 Arsenal | 2020/21

Slavia’s first-ever qualification for the Champions League proper saw them placed in the same group as us, and we hit the Czech team for seven in a thumping 7-0 victory at Emirates Stadium as Theo Walcott and Cesc Fabregas scored braces while strikes from Alexander Hleb, Nicklas Bendtner and an own goal secured our joint-biggest European victory, but a goalless draw was played out in the return game in Prague.

Fast forward to 2021 and we met again in the Europa League quarter-finals, as Slavia aimed to match their best continental achievement when they reached the last four of the same competition in 1995/96. Current star Holes’ late equaliser at Emirates Stadium cancelled out Nicolas Pepe’s opener in N5, but we turned on the style in the Czech capital, with a brace from Alexandre Lacazette plus strikes from Pepe and Bukayo Saka seeing us cruise to victory.
