William Saliba and Martin Odegaard, two of Arsenal's basic people, are confident that they can turn the “double” fate with PSG in the return of France. The central defender admits that he and his colleagues were “eaten alive” in the first minutes of the match on Emirates.
PSG started in the best possible way the duel with arsenalmarking in the 4th minute through the dembele ousmane. It was, moreover, the only goal of a balanced first sleeve, with a report of the 5-4 quoted shots in favor of the “tunar”.
William Saliba, one of Arsenal's stops, felt the superiority of the Paris in the first minutes. In an intervention at Canal+, the French defender showed “disappointed that I lost and received very early goal.”
William Saliba, after Arsenal – PSG: “They ate us alive in the first 20 minutes!”
“In the first 20 minutes they ate us, but then we were much better and we could register until the end of the first half. But it is not ready, we will play a second match on Parc des Princes and we hope to win there,” he added.
Confidently tried to show up and Captain Martin Odegaard:
“I am disappointed with the result. We wanted to win, to start better, but we must remain convinced that we can return the situation. We must learn from today's match and make sure that we will return to return.
Early void had a major impact on the game but then We were missing something around the opponent's square, in the last third, the last pass, the combinations to be truly dangerous. We must analyze and go back convinced that we can return the score ”.
The return match between PSG and Arsenal will take place on Wednesday, May 7, from 10:00 pm. Until then, the champion of France will travel to Strasbourg, and Arsenal a match at home with Bournemouth.
Whatever can happen, but I have to repeat: PSG has been clearly superior in this match, so many things need to change so that Arsenal can overcome it.
