- Arsenal – Molde 4-1 (1-1)
Coach Mikel Arteta bragged Molde Wednesday and took an early cold shower. But Arsenal shouldn’t have a problem winning three points against the Norwegians in London on Thursday night.
Molde played well and got off to a dream start. Then it was completely undone, first with two own goals. Then Arsenal took full control of the match.
Molde is still doing well in Group B with two wins from three games.
– We are far from satisfied. We expected more of ourselves in the second half. We opened the team and climbed a little more than was supposed. We are being punished for it. The boys want to show themselves, we also lose a bit of the compactness that we should have, says coach Erling Moe on TV 2.

Kanonkule
After just over a quarter of an hour, Molde landed a free kick in a good position. Magnus Wolff Eikrem hit the ball while Stian Gregersen was higher up the field, but goalkeeper Bernd Leno’s arms stuck out more. He boxed the ball.
It should be just a little warning of things to come. Soon after, the team from the city of roses shook the great English team.
From about 20 yards, Martin Ellingsen struck, and the ball was secured in the net behind Leno.
Arsenal put the ball into goal five minutes before half-time, but Joe Willock was offside when the ball was scored in front of goal. However, it was not Nketiah who put in, so the decision was wrong. But Molde escaped in horror.
Own objective
Ohi Omoijuanfo immediately forced Leno out with full force when he finished from an angle.
Molde didn’t go very far in the first half. Before the own goal came.
Arsenal came in on a quick attack that ended with Kristoffer Haugen sliding the ball into his own goal. Molde had to go down the drain to the locker room to take a break.
But the pain got worse. Because it was, of all things, two own goals that ruined Molde. This time Arsenal got into another good attack and put the ball in front of the goal. Sheriff Sinyan shoves the ball into his own net.
Later, Arsenal made it 3-1, and then 4-1, first by Pepe, then by Willock.
Recently, the national team player Stian Gregersen was replaced during the break. According to TV 2, this is an injury.
– He has a little feeling on his back. We can only hope it is not durable. I have not received more information than that. We’ll see, Erling Moe tells TV 2.
