Arsenal’s director, Michael Artetta Tie 1-1 on Sunday But he still managed to show his dissatisfaction.
Bruno Fernandes fired a lead in the first half of the interruption in Old Trafford by a free kick, which measured the wall of the arsenals 11.2 meters from the ball as struck. The distance imposed by referee Anthony Taylor was considered excessive, even if it was not drastically different from the usual “minimum” ten meters.
Said Arteta Sports That Fernandes was simply smart for the situation and that the officials “allowed” to happen. “He’s smart and exploited, that’s football. He’s smarter than Ref. That’s okay, they allowed him to do it”, the Arsenal Said Boss.
United Midfielder Christian Eriksen said he was “beneficial” to the original side, although his appreciation for the distance of the wall was from the sign.
“Happy that the wall was about 15 meters away, so it was perfect for him to put it up,” Eriksen said. “It was beneficial to us. It makes a very, very big difference. You don’t have to hit it so tall. It is easier and gives Bruno a little more space to hit it over the wall.”
Gunners ‘counterpart, Declan Rice, suggested that it was not so great for a deal, placing more responsibility for the goal of players’ actions on the wall and not the additional courtyard of the space.
“I felt like some of us jumping and some of us didn’t do it. But I haven’t seen it back. I felt that the ball threw over us at a very low height so, from the point of view of the wall, we could do much better,” Rice said Sports.
“The wall felt far behind, even in our free kick, when Martin (Odegaard) took it. They felt far behind, more than usual, but the referee makes this decision.”
