Ahmed Musa stumbles with CSKA against Arsenal

Ahmed Musa CSKA

Super Eagles forward, Ahmed Musa, was unable to save CSKA Moscow from an impending mauling at the hands of Arsenal on Thursday.

Arsene Wenger men were ruthless in attack, hitting their visitors 4-1 in the Europa League with two goals each from Alex Lacazette and the Aaron Ramsey, but it should really have been about 8-1.

That’s how easy it was for Arsenal, who had Mesut Ozil absolutely purring.

Although Aleksandr Golovin got the away goal, Musa was visibly his side’s biggest threat.

He regularly exploited Shkodran Mustafi’s vulnerability to pace but didn’t make his dominance count.

Substitute, Alex Iwobi, seemed to be toying with the expectations of the crowd, though, as he so often opted to shot when a shot clearly seemed on.

Musa and his teammates will be aiming to overturn the four-goal deficit in the return fixture.
