Arsenal, the Premier League powerhouse, seems to be shrouded in an invisible black fog recently. At dawn on Thursday (7), as guests of Inter Milan, they launched a 20-times offensive feast in the UEFA Europa League match, but failed to score a single goal. To make matters worse, a controversial penalty shootout ended in a 0-1 loss, making it the first UEFA Europa League defeat of the season. Arsenal have now swallowed three defeats in their last six matches. And while Mikel Arteta and Xaviers left midway through today's match due to injuries, Liverpool are in a crisis situation at the weekend.
Inter Milan started the match with a fierce attack, and Dufresne's shot almost pierced the opponent's goal. Arsenal's Cenu, on the other hand, solidly dominated possession. Manu's drive was cleverly blocked by Inter Milan goalkeeper Ennison's mallet, and a prolonged VAR review failed to award a penalty. However, in first-half stoppage time, Manu was tackled in the box and the referee awarded a penalty, with Inter's Chahanu Kubo scoring.
Arsenal did not give up after the changeover, with Gabil Magathis going close before the white world, and Xavis having both his shots deflected for a 0-1 defeat. Arsenal's campaign set a record for the most shots without a goal in the UEFA since 2006 against CSKA Moscow (23 attacks). Currently, Arsenal are 12th in the league with 2 wins and 1 loss in 4 matches, while Inter Milan are 5th with 3 wins and 1 draw.
Arsenal's recent form is in the doldrums, with manager Ido Emery suddenly announcing his resignation. After this loss, Arsenal once again suffered consecutive defeats. Marino was substituted at half-time with a suspected head knock, while Xaviers left the field late in the game after a collision with an opponent. After the match, Arsenal leader Adi Da said: "Today we are one of the best teams in Europe, everything is good except the result. Losing is a fact, but if we can maintain this level, we are fully capable of winning the game."
