Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal are still in a tailspin and this Sunday, in a game that was supposed to help them resurface, they lost 0-1 to Burnley with an own goal by Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
The match was marked once again by the failure of Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette up front and by an incomprehensible expulsion from Granit Xhaka, who after a foul grabbed a Burnley player by the neck. The expulsion also came at a time when the ‘Gunners’ were better, just after the break, when they were overturned on Nick Pope’s goal and gradually approaching the goal.
In the first half, Lacazette had a chance that could have changed the course of the game, when he missed a sung death pass. But Arsenal is ostracized.
Xhaka ‘self-expelled’ and Aubameyang scored an own goal from a corner and gave the victory to a Burnley who leaves the relegation zone and brings him closer to Arsenal.
The London team, with 13 points, is fifteenth in the standings, five above Fulham, which marks the relegation places.
In the other game of the night in England, Leicester City beat Brighton & Hove Albion 3-0, Steven Alzate entered at 55 ‘, with two goals from James Maddison and one from Jamie Vardy. The ‘Foxes’ are still in good shape and are third, just one point behind Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool.
