Mikel Arteta, head coach of the "Arsenal" football team, shared his thoughts on the 2:1 victory over "Chelsea" in the 28th round of the Premier League. The Spanish specialist stated that he was satisfied with the game his team displayed.
İdman.Biz, referring to the BBC publication, reports that Arteta specifically noted the opponent's strength.
"We realized in advance that this match would not be easy. "Chelsea" is an elite team with a very good coaching staff. I think we showed beautiful football in several episodes during the game. Although the moment of conceding a goal disappointed us, we had a whole part to fix the situation. We had to be more careful in controlling the ball when the opponent was in the minority. Since we were playing against a top team, we understood how important one-on-one battles are during standard situations," the head coach said.
Currently, "Arsenal" leads the English Championship standings with 64 points. The "Gunners" will face "Brighton" away in the next round on March 4.
