Arsenal suffer, but come out with 3 points from the challenge against Hull City. The "Gunners" suffered extremely hard to find the winning touch in this challenge despite having total control of the game, 68% of the ball possession, hitting the box 10 times, but Kai Havertz and the rest of the offensive phase were not on their best day. Finally, after several attempts, Arteta's team unlocked the result in the 72nd minute thanks to a goal from Odegaard. The captain's goal remained in force until the end with Arsenal celebrating this success that strengthens their positions at the top of the table, at 27 points, plus 6 in relation to Man.City.
Coach Arteta appeared pleased with this success: "It was important to maintain the rhythm of positive results. I think we had some important moments where we could have scored a few more goals, but we didn't. Overall, I think we deserved this victory," said the Arsenal coach.
More than the triumph against Hull City, Arsenal rejoices at the defeat of Man.City. The “Citizens” suffered another heavy defeat, this time away against Nottingham. For Maresca's team, this was the third consecutive defeat in the Premier League. Cunha scored the first goal in the 6th minute for Nottingham, while in the 18th minute, almost in the same form, the locals caught Man.City with a quick counterattack finalized by Delap. City tried to get back into the game, with the citizens narrowing the score to 2-1 thanks to a super goal scored by Cherki. The Frenchman's super goal was simply an illusion after Delap completed his personal “double” and the third goal for Nottingham.
Despite this being the third consecutive loss, Enzo Marseca is not making a fuss: "No panic. We need to understand what is wrong, but no panic. We need to use the pause now to understand what we are doing wrong, so that we do not repeat the mistakes in the future. We are simply worried about the losses ," Maresca said at a press conference.
