Arsenal 4-1 Molde: Mikel Arteta calls for Europa League VAR introduction despite win

Arsenal came from behind in two of the three games in European League Group B.

Michael Arteta has called for the introduction of the video of the assistant referee in the group matches of the European League, despite the fact that Arsenal does not have a comfortable winner against Moldova.

Thanks to a solid victory, the athletes reached the middle of Group B with a record of one hundred percent.

But it could have been more, as Eddie Nketia had what seemed like a legal offside goal from Nicolas Pepe when Molde took an 1-0 lead.

Unlike the Champions League, the VAR is not used in the group phases of the European League.

I don’t think it makes sense if we have the technology and we all think it’s the right decision for everyone, Mr. Arteta said.

So I don’t understand, we complained to the referee because we were told that he is clearly in the game and that of course this is a situation that could clearly change the game.

So I think they should look at it and, if possible, change it.

For the second time in three group races the Gunners had to settle for a 25 meter pass from Martin Ellingsen to Bernd Leno after an excellent pass from former Manchester United replacement Magnus Wolf Eikrem.

Arsenal leveled at the end of the first half after Nkefia’s banned goal.

Christopher Haugen passed his goalkeeper and tried to intercept a Nkefias cross by Joe Willock before Sid Colasinak missed a big chance at the bar.

The Gunners took the lead when Molde replaced Sheriff Sinian, who changed Willock’s six-metre pass into his own net.

Replacement Buquayo Saca chose Pepe for a 3-1 victory before Willock scored a well-deserved late goal when Arsenal moved to the top of the group with three games to go.

Arsenal leader of the European League Group B with three points.

Willock and Ncephia illuminated for archers

Arsenal, with two games in reserve, have been able to win the last 32 games with a victory on the way back in Norway on January 26th. November.

Arteta is currently winning three straight games in all competitions since they were cancelled last month by Lester’s counterattack.

Despite the shortage, Arsenal managed to keep their opponents at bay without the help of Pierre-Emerica Decoyan, Alexander Lacazette or Thomas Parteille.

Arteta finally smiled and hit Willock with his fist on the field after a complete whistle. The 21-year-old entered his first season in the Premier League with a performance full of hunger and nostalgia.

The way he approaches every opportunity shows how mature he is, Arteta said when asked about Willock’s contribution.

I’m also impressed with the way he communicates. I think he’s really developing, he’s a player I really like.

He has very special qualities, and he deserves every minute he plays, and he shows it with his performance, goals and attitude.

The shooters withdrew after they were unable to close Ellingsen, whose magnificent shot made Molde dream of one of the greatest results in their history.

It was a wake-up bell that the hosts needed, the artistic side played with more intensity after the setup.

The future of Arsenal seems to be in good hands, Ncetia also impressed with her speed and performance, while substitute Saka played a very cautious pass and chose Pepe for his goal.

Four goals and four assists in nine European matches for Pepe – stat

  • Arsenal avoided the defeat with 60 percent, missed the first game led by Michael Arteta, won four times and played two of those ten games (L4).
  • In all European competitions, Norwegian teams lost 21 of their 23 away games to the British, scoring 14 goals and admitting 104.
  • Arsenal has won 15 of the 21 games in the group stage of the European League (71 percent – D4 L2), at least six more than any other team in the 2017-18 season.
  • Since the beginning of last season, Bukayo Saka has made 14 assists in all leagues, more than any other player in the arsenal in this period.
  • For the first time since their 4-0 victory over Swansea in the Premier League in January 2017, the Hanners scored two goals of their own in one game.
  • Since joining Arsenal, Nicolas Pepe has scored eight goals in nine UEFA Europa League matches (4 goals, 4 assists), making him the first player to play consecutive matches in the league.
