2023-10-21 20:08:00

In fact, the Blues deserved to win this game quite a bit due to their clearly superior form. and were ahead by two goals. But in the end, the Gunners team showed that they are truly ready to challenge for the Premier League title this season. and grabbed one valuable point back home admirably

1. The Blues made two military changes.

Chelsea made two changes to their starting line-up from the win over Burnley two weeks ago, with Armando Broya unable to play due to injury, while Axel Disasi was dropped to substitute. Let Mikailo Mudrik enter the field as well as Malo Gusto, who is free from his ban.

At the same time, the home team has Reece James, the injured team captain, back on the sidelines since being injured in the opening game of the season, while Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo, stars of the national team. Argentina and Ecuador, who played their national team in midweek, were both named in the first 11.

2. The Gunners have Saka fit to fight.

Arsenal changed two starting players as well. But there was good news: Bukayo Saka, the winger who was injured and missed service with the England national team, recovered from his injury and returned to play, with Eddie Nketiah being pushed to the edge.

In addition, Gabriel Martinelli, the hero from the previous match, returned to play as a starter in place of Leandro Trossar, who also dropped to the sidelines, while William Saliba, Gabriel. Joel Magalhaes and Gabriel Jesus, who left to serve the country, fought in unison even though the former had a foot injury that made him unable to play for France.

However, in this game Aaron Ramsdale was not named as a reserve goalkeeper because he left to watch his wife give birth to a baby boy, so Karl Hein sat on the sidelines instead.

For Jorginho, the former Chelsea midfielder played as a starter against his old team, while Kai Havertz, who also moved from the Blues, sat in the booth.

3. Palmer, the local favorite

Since signing Cole Palmer, a youngster from Manchester City, Chelsea have improved significantly to become their best signing of the summer.

Before the home clash with Arsenal, the Blues, who had a terrible start to the season, were able to win three matches in a row in every competition, and in the end, Palmer found the back of the net for Sethi. London already have two points from two games after a penalty kill led the team to a 1-0 lead over the Gunners in the first half, having previously beaten Burnley 4-1. The 21-year-old star also Can’t miss a penalty shootout either.

As a result, Palmer has scored goals in two consecutive league games, and at the age of 21 years and 168 days makes him the third youngest player to score two consecutive penalty kicks in the Premier League, after Bukayo Saka (20 years 230 days) and Peter Enlove (21 years 50 days)

Meanwhile, it was the first time this season that the Gunners were able to send Saka, Martinelli and Jesus to play together. But it turned out that the three were unable to cause any problems for the team. Before losing the penalty to Palmer, the team from the Emirates Stadium had no chance to find the target at all, while Chelsea tried. Shot 4 times and entered the frame 1 time, with the home team having more than 51:49% of the ball as well.

However, after the first 45 minutes, Arsenal turned over and controlled the ball with more than 62:38%, but it was Chelsea who shot more than 7 times and went into the frame 2 times, while the visitors scored 2 times but didn’t go into the frame.

4. Artillery continues undefeated.

Whether it was luck or not is up to you to think about, but for sure Mudrik found the back of the net for Arsenal early in the second half after a left-hand throw that flew over Raya into the net and it had a strong impact on A game that caused the former runner-up to face more problems in trying to turn the situation around and get to the finish line.

However, even though they were unable to grab three points to fully jump to the top of the table, Arsenal at least showed that this season they undoubtedly have a chance to compete for the championship again when they… Clan Rice took advantage of David Sanchez’s mistake in releasing the ball and shot a long shot to break the game for the visiting team in the 77th minute before substitute Trossar headed in to score Saka’s cross which the game ended. Will quietly score the equalizing goal for the Gunners in the 84th minute.

Therefore, sharing points in this game was disappointing for Chelsea, who were ahead by two goals. But they were unable to win over their city team, while Arsenal even got just one point. But being able to equalize is like a draw multiplied by two, which is no different from victory.

At the same time, it must be admitted that Arteta’s team did not deserve to lose in this game if we look at their performance in the second half, which played progressively better and was even rewarded for their efforts with the latter statistics. The end of the game indicated that the away team was superior in both possession with 57:43% and more shot opportunities with 13:11, despite being on target 5:3 less times.

5. The form is not beautiful but it gets results.

Despite scoring two goals in the second half to equalize with Chelsea, it wouldn’t be wrong to say that Arteta’s team played one of the ugliest games in the last few games.

Especially in the first half, where they played below standard and were caused problems by Chelsea, who began to improve, many times until the home team was two goals ahead, until it looked like the Gunners deserved to lose the game. The first one in the season has arrived.

And it will be said that even if the visitors get one important point But it can be said that it was not an impressive performance, especially the breakaway goal which was caused by Sanchez’s mistake rather than the performance of Arsenal’s game. However, Rai must be praised. who is decisive enough to seize the opportunity to shoot from far and break eggs to give the team a shot.

Therefore, since the gap was reduced from two goals to one, The opportunity to get one point for the former runners-up became more possible as they dominated possession over Chelsea and Trossar finally wore their super-sub spirit once again, which reflected well. that teams that don’t give up easily always get results In addition, in the past, teams that have won the championship have often survived under difficult circumstances. Arsenal is showing that they have this in their team because even though they can’t play well. It can be seen that many football traders have low skill scores. But in the end, they were able to get results, which is a good quality for a team that wants to challenge success.
