Arsenal could not overcome Man City in the decisive match to the top of the table and captain midfielder Martin Odegaard admitted the opponent played better.

Arsenal deservedly lost Man City

Despite their best efforts, Arsenal could not maintain the top spot in front of a superior Man City. Pep Guardiola’s army took advantage of Arsenal’s mistakes too well to bring victory and reclaim the top of the table from the opponent.

Sharing after the game, Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard said: “The match was decided by the situations handled within 16m50 and we were not sharp enough in front of the opponent’s goal. Arsenal also did not maintain the certainty needed. set in front of the home team’s goal.

Except for that, it can be seen that Arsenal played a good game. The team has done many impressive things, at times overwhelming the opponent. But the important thing is that we need to do better in front of the opponent’s box.

That’s football, there will be opportunities that you take advantage of, but also opportunities that slip through the toes of your shoes. But Arsenal need to mature and improve, from better finishing as well as more solid in defence. This is not a single player’s story, but a collective problem.

As I said at the start of the season, Arsenal will try to tackle it one game at a time. Now, too, after this loss, Arsenal will look to the next match. We will be looking forward to Saturday’s game with the goal of winning.”

With the loss to Man City, Arsenal was surpassed by the opponent on the rankings. However, Arsenal still have 1 game left to play and Arteta’s teachers and students will have to maintain stability for the rest of the season if they still want to race for the championship.
