London's "Arsenal" returned to the Premier League after the coronavirus pandemic with two consecutive losses. If the loss to the "Manchester City" team can be justified, the performance of the "Gunners" in Saturday's match against "Brighton" greatly angered the team's strategist Mikel Arteta. "Arsenal" took the lead after a goal from Nicolo Pepe, but Lewis Dunk quickly equalized the result, and in the final moments of the match, "Brighton" extended their victory with a goal from Neal Maupay. After the match, M. Arteta openly expressed his disappointment. "It is very difficult to accept such a loss. To lose a match like this is simply unacceptable. We didn't take advantage of many opportunities, allowed the opponents to equalize the result, and didn't do enough to score the second goal. We need to lift the morale of the players. We did many things well, but we lacked fighting spirit. At this level, we cannot afford to concede such goals. A huge challenge awaits all of us in this club. We will strive to rebuild the team and defend the club's name," M. Arteta spoke while chatting with BT Sports.
