Hjulmand Slams Arsenal’s ‘Boring’ Tactics After Champions League Exit
Sporting CP captain Morten Hjulmand didn’t hold back after his side bowed out of the Champions League quarter-finals with a goalless draw at the Emirates. Arsenal reached the semi-finals for the second year running by protecting their 1-0 first-leg advantage. Sporting’s best moment came when Geny Catamo struck the post, but they struggled to build sustained pressure. Hjulmand pointed to the constant stoppages and low intensity as the main culprits. He argued that frequent interruptions, especially around set-pieces, robbed his team of any rhythm and made the match “boring.” "If I was a viewer, 0-0 and a 1-0 first leg doesn't show our side," he said. Despite creating chances when they found a flow, Sporting couldn’t do enough to overturn the tie.
