Arsenal survive ostersunds scare

A thrilling match!

Arsenal survived a scare against Ostersunds FK in the Europa League on Thursday, winning 1-0 at the Emirates Stadium to advance to the quarterfinals.

The Gunners, who were heavy favorites going into the match, struggled to break down the Swedish side's stubborn defense and were forced to rely on a late goal from Mesut Ozil to secure the win.

Ostersunds, who were making their debut in the Europa League, held their own against the Premier League giants, with goalkeeper Aly Keita making several crucial saves to keep the score level.

Arsenal's best chances came in the first half, with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette both going close. However, it wasn't until the 71st minute that Ozil finally broke the deadlock, curling a beautiful shot into the top corner from outside the box.

The win sets up a quarterfinal tie against CSKA Moscow, who defeated Lyon 3-2 on aggregate in the previous round.
