Arsenal’s Leandro Trossard has admitted that his team did not perform at their best in their recent match. Trossard scored the only goal in a lackluster 1-0 victory over Manchester United at Old Trafford.
Despite United fielding a near reserve eleven and suffering from numerous injuries, Arsenal struggled to create clear-cut chances and barely scraped through with a win.
Speaking to BBC Sport, Trossard acknowledged, “Maybe it wasn’t the prettiest game but credit to the guys, we defended so well. We kept another clean sheet and one goal is enough to win the game.”
The Belgian forward also highlighted the team’s difficulties, stating, “We were struggling a little bit so it was so nice to get the win. When you’re only 1-0 up, it is always a bit tricky.”
Trossard emphasized Arsenal’s efforts to secure a second goal, but acknowledged the danger of United’s counter-attacks. He said, “We were trying to score a second but they are dangerous on the counter-attack.”
With Arsenal on a great run of form, Trossard expressed optimism for their final game, stating, “It is a great run for us and now we take it to the final game. You never know what is going to happen.”
In conclusion, despite not being at their best, Arsenal managed to secure an important victory against Manchester United. Trossard praised his team’s defensive performance and highlighted the significance of keeping a clean sheet. With one more game remaining, Arsenal will look to maintain their positive momentum.
