UCL Final Bound, Emotional Celebrations & Gyökeres Joins Elite Company

Frimmy and Josh are back in the Emirates Stadium studio after one of the biggest nights in Arsenal’s modern history as the Gunners are through to the UEFA Champions League final after beating Atlético Madrid in the semi-finals. Frimmy reflects on his trip to Madrid for the first leg, from the incredible atmosphere inside the Metropolitano to Atlético fans launching toilet rolls across the stands before kick-off. Working pitchside behind the goal, he relives Viktor Gyökeres’ thunderous penalty and the noise from the travelling Arsenal support. Back in north London, the pair discuss the unforgettable scenes at the Emirates for the second leg, with thousands of supporters lining the streets to welcome the team bus before kick-off. Josh shares Declan Rice’s reaction to the atmosphere, while Frimmy admits the emotion that the full-time celebrations reduced him to. There’s also discussion around Viktor Gyökeres reaching 20 goals in all competitions in his debut season and the conversation also turns to the Fulham win, Per Mertesacker’s Emirates farewell tribute and Frimmy’s latest failed attempt to say hello to Thierry Henry. Another historic week. Another huge episode. Make sure you’re subscribed wherever you get your podcasts, and head to YouTube, Arsenal.com or The Arsenal app to watch the full show.
