BREAKING Arsenal handed suspension blow but Mikel Arteta has Champions League silver lining

Arsenal midfielder Martin Zubimendi will be suspended for the Gunners' next Champions League clash - but he will not miss the clash against Bayern Munich.

Zubimendi was deployed alongside Declan Rice in the north Londoners' clash against Atletico Madrid. Both the Spaniard and the England talisman came into the contest on a yellow card which were picked up in an earlier match in Europe.

The ex-Real Sociedad midfielder brought down an Atletico player close to the touchdown and then reacted angrily to the decision. Referee Davide Massa pulled out the yellow card to the frustration of Zubimendi and the Arsenal fans.
