Arsène Wenger’s milestone 1000th match on the Arsenal bench will be remembered for all the wrong reasons. Chelsea emerged victorious with a crushing 6-0 win over the Gunners, adding to Wenger’s woes against his Portuguese counterpart, José Mourinho. In their ten encounters, Wenger has never managed to defeat Mourinho, resulting in 5 draws and 5 defeats. The match turned into a nightmare for the legendary Arsenal coach, while Mourinho celebrated jubilantly, edging closer to the title.
“We achieved what we set out to do, recovering the ball and swiftly transitioning forward. At 2-0 after 10 minutes, the game was effectively over; we were too strong for them. With the red card, the match was finished,” remarked the Chelsea coach.
