Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta commented on the draw result in the 26th round of the Premier League match against Brentford (1:1).

" After that, we began to work in our own style, often playing in their half of the field and making great approaches, even without any obvious scoring chances. The second half started even harder - judging by the way they combined and steadily attacked their defense and the goalkeeper, it looked much more unsafe. However, we still lacked accuracy - we didn’t hit the target very much and didn’t bring the attacks to completion.

Then they scored, and the game was entirely under our control. Alez with such a command is not enough. It shows one episode: unnecessarily viscous foul, pressing, near miss or out. We were told before the match: if you want to overcome here, you need to steal the penalty box as your life and carry the ball obligingly, because there will be a lot of gravitationalists in the rebounds. If you can’t earn anything, it’s really easy to win. In one of the episodes we didn’t get into trouble - we need to give them due credit.

After the game opened, there were more transitional phases. There's just one very sad moment, but it's good, played by Declan Rice. We had two significant counter-points, perhaps the most unsafe moment of the match, if Martinelli was at the top of the goalkeeper and could bring victory,” the club’s press service quotes Arteta as saying..
