Mikel Arteta reveals Arsenal's 'huge mistake' against West Ham as 'bottled' trends on Twitter AFC
Gabriel Jesus and Martin Odegaard were the scorers for the Gunners, however, for a second straight match they surrendered a 2-0 lead as a Said Benrahma penalty and Jarrod Bowen strike saw the spoils get shared.And Arteta was less than pleased with his side after they relinquished their two-goal lead.He said: “Started extremely well again. Dominated the game, dominated the pitch and scored two beautiful goals.
“After that we made a huge mistake to stop playing with the same purpose to score the third and fourth one and just thinking we could play around them and maintain the result and just looked too easy.Advertisement“There is another moment where you could go 3-1 up after 50 minutes and probably the game is over.“My worry is after 2-0 that we made that huge mistake and didn’t understand what the game required in the moment.
After Thomas Partey was robbed of the ball by Declan Rice, Lucas Paqueta was fouled in the box by Gabriel, with Benrahma converting the penalty. Soon after half-time, Saka had the chance to restore Arsenal’s two-goal lead from the spot after Michail Antonio’s handball but the England star’s effort went wide.And to make matters worse, Bowen then scored a fine equaliser while the Gunners could not truly test Lukasz Fabianski after.
The word ‘bottled’ trended next to Arsenal on Twitter shortly after the full-time whistle, with the draw meaning Arsenal are now four points clear ofTwitter reacting to Arsenal dropping a two-goal lead away from home for the second week in a row 👀
