Arsenal vs Shakhtar Donetsk History

Arsenal’s involvement in top-tier European football was as regular as clockwork under Arsene Wenger, with the North London side qualifying for the UEFA Champions League every season from 2000 to 2017, and in almost every campaign, the Gunners made it at least as far as the knockout rounds. In 2006 they reached the final for the first time and led through Sol Campbell. However, FC Barcelona came roaring back against the ten-men of Arsenal, scoring two goals late on to shatter the Premier League side’s hopes.

As Ukraine’s leading team, Shakhtar Donetsk have experienced plenty of wonderful European nights, and in 2011, they achieved their best-ever run in the competition when they reached the Quarter-Finals before bowing out to FC Barcelona. In 2008/09, they reached the final of the UEFA Cup, the last edition of the competition before it was rebranded as the UEFA Europa League, with Mircea Lucescu’s side defeating Werder Bremen in Istanbul thanks to goals from Brazilians Luiz Adriano and Jadson.

A decade later, they were once again in the same group, and on this occasion, goals from Alex Song, Samir Nasri, Cesc Fabregas, Jack Wilshere, and Marouane Chamakh gave Arsene Wenger’s side a 5-1 win, while in Ukraine, Shakhtar were once again the victors.
