Arsenal Women faced a disappointing 1-0 defeat at BK Hacken in the first leg of their Champions League qualifier, with Tabitha Tindell scoring the only goal in the 77th minute. Despite Arsenal's dominance in possession and several close chances, including two strikes that hit the crossbar, they failed to capitalize on their opportunities. Manager Jonas Eidevall's side, looking to rebound after last year's early exit, struggled against Hacken's solid defense and artificial turf. Key players like Beth Mead and Rosa Kafaji had notable chances but could not find the net. The loss means Arsenal will need to overcome the deficit in the second leg at Meadow Park next week. This setback adds pressure as they also prepare for their upcoming Women's Super League season opener against Manchester City.
