The French newspaper gave Real Madrid a team rating of 4/10, with the likes of Alaba (2/10), Bellingham (3/10 rating) and Rodrygo (3/10) all having a disappointing evening in their books. Kylian Mbappe got a 4/10, and the only Real Madrid player to emerge with an element of credit was Belgian keeper Thibault Courtois, who got a 6/10 rating.

On the Arsenal side, as with the first leg at the Emirates Stadium, Declan Rice was again a standout player, with the midfielder getting a 8/10 rating from L’Equipe.
