Arsenal have been held to a 1-1 draw by Atletico Madrid in the first leg of their Europa League semi-final, despite playing against 10 men for the majority of Thursday’s match at the Emirates Stadium.
Atletico defender Sime Vrsaljko was dismissed for two yellow cards after just 10 minutes but despite Alexandre Lacazette giving Arsenal the lead, a late goal from Antoine Griezmann has swung the tie in the La Liga side’s favour.
Marseille have defeated Red Bull Salzburg 2-0 at the Stade Veledrome to take control of their Europa League semi-final tie with the Austrian side.
Les Phoceens made it eight wins in their last nine European home ties through goals from Florian Thauvin and substitute Clinton Njie either side of half time.
