Arsenal set Kieran Tierney key revenge mission vs Spain after Rodri tackle on Martin Odegaard

Arsenal defender Kieran Tierney has been urged to get 'revenge' on Manchester City star Rodri after his shocking tackle on Martin Odegaard during Norway's Euro 2024 qualifier clash against Spain. The Gunners captain was hacked down by the Spanish midfielder inside the penalty box, yet Rodri escaped without being penalised for his rash challenge.

Mikel Arteta's side currently sit eight points clear of title rivals Manchester City at the top of the table, with an extra game played, putting the title race firmly in their hands. Poor results and injuries may be one of the only things able to derail the campaign now, though the latter is becoming a concern with the volume of games before the end of May.

Takehiro Tomiyasu is confirmed to be missing the rest of the season, while Arteta continues to sweat over the fitness of William Saliba after a back concern. Should Odegaard suffer a serious injury, it could completely derail the Gunners' title challenge heading into the final stretch of the season given his importance to the team.
