After a disturbing defeat against the last, Sheffield (1-2), Wednesday, Manchester United was almost forced to win his clash against Arsenal on Saturday at the Emirates Stadium as part of Matchday 21.
The Red Devils certainly remain undefeated by taking a point (0-0), but they are now 3 points behind the Citizens, a leader who has a better goal difference (+24 against +10) and even a game less.
Cavani’s failures
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s formation tried to gain the upper hand over the Gunners, but was rarely dangerous. Marcus Rashford did not take advantage of some good situations, Bruno Fernandes made few differences and Edinson Cavani missed two huge chances, on the hour mark (59th) and at the end of the game (89th). Anthony Martial, replacing but launched in the 37th minute, after the exit of Scott McTominay, did not shine.
Lacazette on the bar!
Arsenal, deprived of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (running out of rhythm after being at her sick mother’s bedside), also had her little opportunities. But a powerful free kick fromAlexandre lacazette hit the bar of David De Gea (65th)!
After yet another opportunity not converted by Nicolas Pepe (81st), Martin Odegaard made his debut with Arsenal without being able to tell the difference. The formation of Mikel Arteta, 8th, is 13 points behind the first.
