AS Monaco FC Catch Arsenal Cold




It was a call to celebration for AS Monaco FC yesterday over a 3-1 win against Arsenal. Does this mean Arsenal is out of champion’s league? *Just asking sha* because some persons are very good at football mathematics.
Leonardo Jardim saluted AS Monaco FC for their ability to have sticked to their game plan as they celebrate a 3-1 victory at Arsenal FC which left Arsène Wenger ruing his own side's lack of control.
According to him:
We analyzed Arsenal beforehand and knew they were stronger in the first half of games and that they struggle a bit after interval. We were very organized in the first half, and that gave us room to counterattack with great effect in the second half.
Arsenal as we all know, have some very good players and we were able to rule out that threat. Initially, nobody thought this wining would be possible. People often say, Arsenal is a great team and we are only halfway through the tie. I'm very happy with this result, but we still haven't won anything we’re only at the halfway stage.
He also said football is an art. What is needed is knowing how to attack and defend, and we are a very balanced side. First and foremost we try to look for stability so we can attack. It's very difficult to score lots of goals in the Champions League, so it's better for us to be an organized team. Tonight this allowed us to attack Arsenal in the second half.
Although this wasn't our biggest win we’ve had some big wins already in the Champions League this season against Zenit
Arsène Wenger who is also Arsenal manager congratulated AS Monaco FC. According to him they got a perfect result. We missed chances and were a bit suicidal defensively. We were unlucky because the first goal was deflected, but the second and third goals were suicidal. It looks like we have lost our nerve and our rationality on the pitch. The heart took over the head, and at this level that doesn't work.
Mentally we were not sharp enough to get into this game and we paid for it. In the first 20 minutes there were enough spaces to take the lead. We missed our chances. At this level, you cannot afford the chances we missed. On the night Monaco produced a performance and we didn't.
Let’s have your thoughts on this issue
