Mikel Arteta left furious with three Arsenal stars in Champions League win
Arsenal kept up their perfect start to the season with a 1-0 win over Napoli in the UEFA Champions League, but not everything went to plan, as Mikel Arteta was seemingly concerned
Arsenal's manager Mikel Arteta was visibly angry during his team's 1-0 UEFA Champions League victory against Napoli. He berated three of his forwards – Kai Havertz, Noni Madueke, and Christos Tzolis – for not defending properly as Napoli attempted to equalize. Arteta demanded that the players recover their defensive positions, a scene that was captured on camera and noticed by TNT Sports commentator Lucy Ward.
Despite the slim margin of victory, Arteta praised his team's overall performance, acknowledging they were dominant but also conceding that they missed several crucial opportunities. The Arsenal midfielder Martin Ødegaard scored the winning goal in the 75th minute, demonstrating his ability to impact results. Arteta highlighted Ødegaard's contributions, emphasizing the importance of their forwards being decisive in crucial moments.
