Lacazette 10/10, Saka 9/10 as Arsenal deliver dominant performance to reach Europa semifinals

Arsenal cruised into the Europa League semifinals with a remarkable 4-0 win against Slavia Prague in the Czech capital.

The clinical Gunners took the lead when Nicolas Pepe blasted in from close range after Emile Smith Rowe's tap-in had earlier been chalked off by VAR. Within just six minutes 1-0 became 3-0 as Alexandre Lacazette stroked home from the penalty spot before Bukayo Saka's fine finish effectively finished the tie with just 24 minutes in the clock.

Lacazette later helped himself to a second with a composed finish in the 77th minute to cap a fine victory for Mikel Arteta's side, who will now play Villarreal and former boss Unai Emery in the semifinals.
