Arsenal halt Sporting CP’s 17‑game home streak

Arsenal’s late goal from Kai Havertz snapped Sporting CP’s record‑setting 17‑game home winning run, securing a 1‑0 first‑leg advantage in the Champions League quarter‑final.

Arsenal’s 1-0 win at Estadio Jose Alvalade, courtesy of a late Havertz strike, ended Sporting CP’s historic 17‑game home winning streak and their 20‑game unbeaten run at the venue. The result gives Arsenal a first‑leg lead as they await a second‑leg showdown at the Emirates on April 15.
