Arsenal player ratings vs Atletico as 9/10 star drives them into Champions League final

Arsenal are through to the Champions League final after grinding out a 1-0 win against Atletico Madrid . Last week's dramatic 1-1 draw in the Spanish capital set up a finely-poised second leg at a raucous Emirates. It was decided by Bukayo Saka , who on his second start since returning from injury, and while wearing the captain's armband, was first to react to a Leandro Trossard shot which had been saved by Jan Oblak . There were appeals for offside, but Saka had kept himself behind Atletico's last defender before converting the tap-in. Arsenal then defended resolutely to stave off wave after wave of attack, and they could've been further in front had Viktor Gyokeres finished a gilt-edged chance. But one goal was enough, as Mikel Arteta's side got the better of Diego Simeone's to book their ticket to Budapest, where they'll face either Bayern Munich or holders Paris Saint-Germain . Here are our player ratings from the Emirates.

Ben White - 6 Still not back to his best but is slowly improving and has better quality on the ball. William Saliba - 6 Lucky to get away with one big mistake - a sloppy back header - but had a let-off. Gabriel Magalhaes - 8 Made a sensational, goal-saving challenge to bail out his defensive partner. Riccardo Calafiori - 7 Good on the ball and his selection over Hincapie showed attacking intent. Eberechi Eze - 6 Did OK, put in a shift but did not make things happen. Subbed before the hour Declan Rice - 9 Covered every blade of grass. His drive and determination was fantastic.

Bukayo Saka - 8 The epitome of a big-game player. Captain, goalscorer and inspiration. Viktor Gyokeres - 8 Excellent on Saturday and came to life as the game wore on. His shot led to opener.
