A fairly logical setback overall for ASM which now falls to 16th place in the rankings in this first phase. This is the second defeat in a row in Europe for Adi Hutter’s men but also the third in the last 4 outings.
After the match, Thilo Kehrer reflected on the scathing defeat and took the opportunity to send a message to his locker room for the next matches. “ I think there were phases in which we showed ourselves, we were quite in the match, but we made too many errors and too many gifts, losing balls under pressure, and even without… The Arsenal players, with their individual qualities, are punishing us tonight. Today, we know that they were on top, but we have a young team and we must take that as a lesson,” he said at the microphone of Canal +.
Before continuing:“The two defeats in a row? We have to bounce back, we have two matches against Aston Villa and Inter Milan, two teams which have a lot of quality, but we have shown in other matches that we can be at the level. »
Monaco will aim to bounce back this Saturday evening as part of the 15th day of Ligue 1 on the pitch at the Stade de Reims. The Principality club could put pressure on PSG in the event of success against the Rémois.
