In Premier League Matchday 13, Arsenal drew 1-1 away to Chelsea. Gunners captain Martin Ødegaard came on as a substitute in the game but failed to change the scoreline.
In an interview, Ødegaard said: “It was an intense game, a good battle. Both teams were very positive, starting strongly with a lot of tackles. Obviously, after the opponent’s red card, we felt we should have won and done better in certain aspects. In the end, it was a hard-fought contest, and we got one point, so we have to accept the result and move on, making sure we win the next game.”
“For us, it’s been a very important week. We’ve played several big games and achieved some important results, and today was another huge test for us. We wanted to come here and end the week with a win, but as I said, it was a tough fight. They competed fiercely, and we didn’t do enough to win the game, so we have to push forward – now we must make sure we win the next one.”
“It’s great to be back on the pitch again; I’ve missed this feeling so much. It’s been a strange season for me. I’ve been sidelined for a period of time, but I’ve really focused on the team’s results. Yeah, it’s been a weird season, but I’m back on the pitch and feeling good.”
