- Arsenal 1-0 Rosenborg; Maanum 19
- Hosts give strong display to reach qualifying round two
Jonas Eidevall said he was glad that no English team will have to go through the Champions League mini-tournament qualifying format again, calling it a “relic of the past” and criticising the 72-hour turnaround between the fixtures, with the format of next year’s competition changing.
Eidevall’s Arsenal beat Rangers 6-0 on Wednesday night in a mini-tournament semi-final, and then Rosenborg 1-0 in the final, to progress to round two of Champions League qualifying.
