by Yesterday, Arsenal sensationally defeated Real Madrid 3-0 at home in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals. And Declan Rice achieved something he had never done before.
Details: Rice played a key role in the match with two direct free-kick goals that left Thibaut Courtois with no chance.
What is striking is that for the English central midfielder, these goals were his first career direct free-kick goals.
In total, Declan Rice has scored 14 goals in 98 matches for Arsenal.
Reminder: Following Arsenal’s victory yesterday, it has been officially confirmed that 5 teams from England will participate in the next Champions League.
