You Have to Do

You have to do more, Martin Odegaard! As the sleeping Gunners unforgivably slump at home, Norwegian disappears.

The skipper had little effect on the match as his team lost a lead and ended up drawing at home.

On Saturday, Aston Villa overcame a two-goal deficit to earn a thrilling 2-2 draw with Arsenal. Youri Tielemans and Ollie Watkins appeared at the other end to win Unai Emery’s team a point and startle the. Emirates Stadium into silence after Leandro Trossard had set up Gabriel Martinelli and Kai Havertz. To give the hosts a well-earned lead.

The Gunners had a strong start, but nine minutes into the match, they came dangerously close to taking the lead. The danger came from a corner and was delivered to Thomas Partey deep in the Villa box. But his shot went over the bar, as is customary for the home team.

Mikel Arteta’s team did not break the stalemate until the 34th minute. Despite Emi Martinez’s stop. Martinelli’s superb reaction to Trossard’s cross saw him slip in before of Ian Maatsen and get the ball across the line.

As if that were not awful enough. Villa also took a hit when Amadou Onana had to leave the game with an injury.

The Gunners seized a 2-0 lead thanks to another goal from Trossard. Who collected the ball, took his time against Matty Cash. And then created space to deliver a devastating ball in for Havertz to volley in.

However, less than five minutes later.

Youri Tielemans sent a wonderful cross past Raya with his head after Lucas Digne, a substitute.

A minute later, the Belgian midfielder nearly tied the score, but his attempt struck the post. Both times, he left Mikel Merino frantically trying to stop him, but failing.

Villa was not finished yet. Cash’s cross went barely over Havertz’s head in the 68th minute and fell to Watkins. Who had plenty of room at the back post to score the equalizer.

When Merino, who had been ineffective for the majority of the match, sent the ball bouncing into the net, Arsenal pushed to restore the lead and believed they had won the match. In stoppage time, Merino nearly scored again but missed the post, and Trossard subsequently fumbled his lines.

From then, Villa managed to hang on and earn a point, putting Arsenal six points behind a Liverpool squad with a game left to play.
