ATL 1-1 ARS: No Open Play Goals in Tense First Leg

 Three penalties were called on the field, all of them soft in my opinion, and two were awarded, both converted.  There were chances at both ends, though.  Atleti had the better ones on balance, and I thought we were fortunate to escape with a draw.  Eze and Saka were fit enough to come in as second half subs, which is good news.  Saka is still off the pace, but Eze looks to be close to fully fit.  For me, Rice was our MOTM, but Raya was also excellent.  I expect us to play with more intent in London.
