Jakarta, CNN Indonesia —
Two additional teams managed to secure tickets to the round of 16 after the end of the fifth matchday Liga Champions, Thursday (30/11) morning WIB. The following is a list of 12 teams that have qualified for the last 16 of the Champions League.
Arsenal and PSV are the two latest teams to successfully secure tickets to qualify for the next phase. These two teams both come from group B.
This certainty makes Arsenal and PSV follow in the footsteps of 10 other teams that have already qualified. The 10 teams are Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Real Sociedad, Inter Milan, Manchester City, RB Leipzig, Atletico Madrid, Lazio, Borussia Dortmund and Barcelona.
Arsenal won a ticket to the knockout phase thanks to a landslide 6-0 victory over Lens at the Emirates Stadium, London. The six goals were scored alternately by Kai Havertz, Gabriel Jesus, Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli, Martin Odegaard and Jorginho.
This result makes the Gunners firmly at the top of the standings with 12 points. Mikel Arteta’s team is certain to qualify with group winner status.
Arsenal’s victory also paved the way for PSV. The Dutch team qualified because they were confirmed to have a head to head lead over Lens.
PSV currently have eight points thanks to a 3-2 win over Sevilla and third-placed Lens have five points. This means that the victory achieved by Lens in the last match will not mean anything even if PSV later loses to Arsenal.
