The Champions League match between Arsenal and FC Twente, this evening at 9 p.m. in London, it’s a match full of contrasts. Arsenal, proud winners of last year’s tournament, against a Twente side who had never progressed beyond the group stage.
Arsenal coach Renée Slegers, who was the first Dutch manager to win the Women’s Champions League last season, is looking forward to the meeting with national champions Enschede. “Yes, it will be special,” assures the 36-year-old former international. “Even if I don’t know any players or staff members directly, it will be a special moment.”
