Relegated to Fifteen points from Liverpool after the draw conceded on the lawn of Manchester United combined with the Reds' victory in Southampton, Arsenal was never in a worse position to be champion this season. If Mikel Arteta seems to be resigned to having to fight for second place, evacuating his frustration in the post -match interview, it is not the case for his defensive midfielder and goalscorer of the day, Declan Rice.
“We are going to give everything until the end of the season. Liverpool was incredible, congratulations to them. It's not over yet. We must continue to push, we are Arsenal. There are still a lot of games to play ”said the English international environment after the meeting. With one less meeting, Arsenal is fifteen points behind Liverpool just nine days before the end of the championship, a gap that has never been put back in the history of the Premier League.
