In the early morning of October 27, Beijing time, the fourth round of the British League Cup began a number of competitions, and Arsenal hosted Leeds United. In the first half, neither team achieved anything; in the second half, Chambers and Nketiah scored two goals in a row. In the end, Arsenal beat Leeds United 2-0 and successfully advanced to the quarter-finals.
In the 55th minute, Arteta made his first substitution, Chambers replaced Ben White, and the first touch after 15 seconds helped the team break the deadlock. Arsenal's corner kick from the left was hoisted into the box, Pepe completed the header relay at the back post and Chambers flicked his head in front of goal! Arsenal lead 1-0!
This is the second time in two years that Chambers has scored in an official game. The battle blossomed at home to the iron tree, and the whole team caught up to congratulate it.
In the 69th minute, Cooper's header went back to the top and Nketiah snatched it up at high speed, calmly skipping the goalkeeper and pushing it from a small angle! Arsenal lead 2-0!
So far, Nketiah has scored 7 goals in 8 appearances in the League Cup, and this game can also be regarded as killing the old owner. But due to the inability to get a stable playing time, according to reporters, the 22-year-old new star intends to leave the team in January next year, and Brentford, Leeds United and Villa are all keeping an eye on it.
In the end, Arsenal won 2-0 to Z United, becoming the first team this season to qualify for the League Cup quarter-finals, while they also squeezed into the League Cup Quarter-Finals for the second consecutive year.
This summer, Arsenal invested more than 160 million euros, but unexpectedly suffered a three-game losing streak at the beginning of the league, and the 39-year-old young coach Arteta was criticized. However, as the schedule deepened, the new nuclear Smith Rowe continued to grow, several new signings gradually integrated, and Arsenal, who was ridiculed as the worst giant in the Premier League, began to rise against the trend and has been unbeaten in all competitions for 8 games.
Leeds United were unhappily out, with the 66-year-old Bielsa still holding an embarrassing record – his coaching career has failed to win against Arsenal four times in three competitions.
