(PLO)- As a guest against Leicester City in the 25th round of the Premier League, Arsenal is expected to win all 3 points to take another step to the championship.

Arsenal’s ball control rate is completely superior to the host Leicester when holding the ball 76%, Leicester only know how to cluster in the home field to defend against Arsenal’s close phases.
Despite controlling most of the time, the Gunners could not create any dangerous situations. It took until the 26th minute for Arsenal fans to celebrate. From the corner situation, Leicester’s goalkeeper tried to punch the ball, the ball reached Trossard’s feet, the Arsenal striker hit a powerful shot, not giving Leicester goalkeeper Ward the opportunity to save. After consulting VAR, the referee denied the Gunners goal because Ben White had fouled goalkeeper Ward earlier.
Realizing the danger of Arsenal, Leicester actively backed down to defend, so the way to the goal of the “Foxes” was increasingly blocked. Arsenal’s strikers only know how to shoot from outside the box, but most of them are not accurate.

Entering the second half, Arsenal had a goal to open the scoring, from a long ball from the middle of the field, Trossard cleverly poked a slot for Martinelli to finish in the far corner of the goal to open the match 1-0.
Unable to play defensively when he conceded a goal, Leicester played high, 52 minutes, Harvey Barnes stretched from the left for Tete to cross the goal but this player could not touch the ball.
Arsenal immediately responded with a second goal, 55 minutes, Odegaard poked a delicate slot for Martinelli to cross and sent a pass to Bukayo Saka to cushion the ball into an empty net, unfortunately Martinelli was offside before.
After the second missed goal, Arsenal became more confident when attacking the ball, the Gunners controlled the ball 73% and launched 10 shots on target and Leicester did not have a shot on target. In the last minutes of the match, Leicester City attacked in search of an equalizer, but the army of coach Brendan Rodgers still could not find a solution to approach Arsenal’s goal.
