In the second half, Lacazette did not score in mid-air, and Arsenal shot 20 times without a hit, and finally drew 0-0 with the bottom team, breaking out of the cold. Arsenal missed the top four and are still two points behind Manchester United, with Arteta disappointed.
A day earlier, United had beaten West Ham at home, meaning Arsenal had slipped to 7th in the table, but were just one point away from the top four and would return to the Champions League with a win over bottom-out Burnley.
In the 16th minute, Lacazette forced a breakthrough with the ball, and a dragon was killed into the box and his right-footed shot was deflected. In the 21st minute, Arsenal counter-attacked, Smith Ronaldo knocked back in the penalty area, followed by Erdegaard's push was saved, and then Lacazette's complementary shot was blocked.
In the 45th minute, Smith Rowe pushed back and distributed the ball to Saka, who inserted the ball on the right, who fired a left-footed shot from the far corner deflected off the far post. Arsenal scored just two of arsenal's 12 shots on goal in the first half, making it 0-0 on target!
In the 67th minute, Tierney's long pass from the back, Smith Roy accelerated the "raw eating" opponent on the left side, along the bottom line all the way into the box and knocked back, Lacazette's right foot poke was deflected out, missing the opportunity to score in mid-air.
Due to the delay in breaking the deadlock, Arteta was very anxious, venting his dissatisfaction on the sidelines, and a verbal altercation broke out with the 4th official, which showed that he was under more pressure.
In the end, Arsenal scored 20 shots on goal, drawing 0-0 at home to Burnley and breaking the scoring. For the first time since 3 October last year, Arsenal have been kept clean sheets in the league, and in their last four games, Arsenal have not scored a single goal, with 2 draws and 2 defeats.
Arsenal are currently beating Spurs with 36 points to move up to 6th in the table but have failed to reclaim the top four in the Premier League from Manchester. The Premier League race for four is very exciting, Manchester United 38 points, West Ham United 37 points, Arsenal 36 points, Tottenham Hotspur is also 36 years old, only 2 points between the four teams.
You know, Arsenal have not played european this season, the FA Cup and the League Cup have been out, and the four have been determined early. So, Arsenal have to go all out for four, which is their only goal for the rest of the season.
