Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has revealed that his side will stop Real Madrid's attacking duo of Kylian Mbappé and Vinícius Júnior when the two sides meet in the UEFA Champions League.

The Gunners will host Los Blancos at the Emirates Stadium later tonight (Tuesday, April 8) in the first leg of this season's UCL quarter-finals.

Speaking ahead of the clash, Arteta stated that his team will work to neutralize the individual brilliance of players like Kylian Mbappé and Vinícius Júnior.

“With the individual qualities that they have, especially when you put them in certain situations, you know the danger you are facing. That’s why consistently they have been doing what they’ve been doing in this competition,” he said.

“They can create those moments, and when it comes to the biggest stage, individual performances can decide the game. These moments are critical for success, and it is something we have to prevent for sure.”
