Searching for a team that can beat Arsenal
By db-admin
DBasia.news – Arsenal won 2-1 when they met Fulham in the fourth week of the Premier League 2022-2023. Until now, no team has been able to beat the Gunners.
Arsenal had fallen behind first through Aleksandar Mitrovic’s goal in the 56th minute. Then, the Gunners responded straight away with two goals through Marti Odegaard (64′) and Gabriel Magalhaes (85′).
Thanks to that result, Arsenal are firmly at the top of the standings after sweeping the first four games with a win. Opta Joe noted, Arsenal had previously only twice had a similar achievement, namely four consecutive wins since the start of the season.
The golden record was engraved in the 2003-2004 season with the result at the end of the season being the champion. The following season, Arsenal did it again, but the result was second.
Mikel Arteta is happy to see the fighting spirit of players. According to him, Arsenal deserved to win.
“I’m even happier than last week. In my opinion, his performance was top,” said Arteta after the match, as released by Arsenal’s official website.
“We had a period where we controlled the game and created a lot of chances. It was only a matter of time and we needed to make no mistakes,” he added.
“We did make mistakes. But then the best thing I think is how the team responds. Obviously, when you have the character and support we have in the stadium, it’s easy to do.”
So far, from the four wins achieved, Arsenal have not met the big clubs. In the next match, Arsenal will host Aston Villa (1/8) before facing Manchester United three days later. It will be interesting to see if these two teams are able to stop Arsenal’s winning streak.
