Advantage Arsenal. The Gunners take a 3-0 lead to the Bernabéu this Wednesday. But if there's one thing that every football fan knows about Real Madrid, it's that you can't count them out. In other words, you're going to want to watch Real Madrid vs. Arsenal in the Champions League quarterfinal second leg, and we have the details you need to tune in.
It really was a special night at the Emirates last week. After a tough few months where their season had threatened to peter out, Arsenal pulled off one of the most jaw-dropping wins in the club's illustrious history. And they largely have midfielder Declan Rice to thank. His two fantastic free kicks were like something out of a comic book. And when Mikel Merino pinged in a third, it put Arteta's men on the cusp of a surprise semifinal slot.
And yet… The Los Blancos' never-say-die approach to European football means that you suspect that not even a three-goal cushion is quite enough. As holders and 15-time champions, they seem to have an innate ability to get things done when it comes to 'old big ears'. And with the likes of Kylian Mbappé, Vinicius Junior, and Jude Bellingham among their XI, they certainly have the Galacticos to bring this tie back from the brink.
Can Arsenal get the job done in Spain? Or will Real pull off yet another miracle at the Santiago Bernabéu. To make sure you don't miss a minute, we have all the information below that you need to watch Real Madrid vs. Arsenal live streams — no matter where in the world you are thanks to the wonders of a VPN.
