Arsenal stars from across the globe are all hoping to make a huge impression on the world stage in the 2022 edition of the World Cup in Qatar. Ten Gooners have made the trip to compete, with some meeting up with one another in their national team setups, while others are facing off on the pitch.
While those clashes are going on, club allegiances are set aside as each nation looks to make it as far as they can into the tournament. There have already been instances of Arsenal players facing off against one another, and this was the case once again on Monday afternoon.
Granit Xhaka took his Switzerland side into battle against Brazil, who have Arsenal duo Gabriel Jesus and Gabriel Martinelli in their ranks. With their club ties in mind, the Swiss talisman was questioned over whether he would let that cloud his judgement in the match.
