Arsenal misses the opportunity against Crystal Palace

This Wednesday, Arsenal hosted Crystal Palace on behalf of Premier League Day 34. Six days from the shock against Paris Saint-Germain in the semifinal of the Champions League, the Gunners had to settle for a draw against Crystal Palace (2-2). A result that will probably have no impact on the title race, as Liverpool has a 12-point lead with a late match. In the absence of the initial boss of the Gunners’ rearguard, Brazilian Gabriel, as well as Ousmane Dembélé, Arsenal started the match in a promising way by opening the score thanks to Jakub Kiwior (3rd). The Pole continues on his good dynamic and impresses under the jersey of Arsenal. However, Crystal Palace responded perfectly and Eberechi Eze (27th) handed both teams a tie. Shortly before half, the Belgian striker Leandro Trossard (43rd) allowed Arsenal to lead 2-1 to the break. In the second act, Arsenal dominated in terms of possession but Crystal Palace was more dangerous. At 20 minutes from the end, Gabriel Martinelli scored the break goal (72nd), but the VAR indicated that the ball had exceeded the limits of the field in advance. Finally, Crystal Palace managed to concretize at the end of the meeting thanks to French striker Jean-Philippe Mateta (83rd), author of a superb shot lobed at the entrance of the surface, following an error of revival by William Saliba.
