In the 36th round of the Premier League, Arsenal drew 2-2 away with Liverpool. Arsenal conceded 2 goals in 2 minutes in the first half, and Arsenal scored 2 goals in a row in the second half. After 36 rounds, Arsenal ranked second in the standings with 68 points, leading No. 3 Newcastle by 2 points and 5 points ahead of No. 5 Chelsea.

After the interview, Arsenal coach Arteta said, "The level we performed in the first half is too far from what we should have, which is hard to accept. Even if we responded later and equalized the score, such performance is still unacceptable."

"I am very disappointed. We can equalize the score and talk about our performance in the second half, but our performance in the first 25 minutes was really out of level."

"After the game against Paris Saint-Germain, I think we are the team with better performances, and we were originally worthy of better results. We failed to enter Europe The championship final is an incredible situation. In today's game, we might have lost 3 to 4 goals in the first half. We equalized the score, but then the team started to challenge 10 people, and we still have three or four players absent due to injury. We must raise our self-requirement. "

"I fully trust my players, and we all know what to do. Next against Newcastle United, it will be a tough game. We want to ensure a place in the Champions League and also the ranking of the second place in the Premier League. If you can't be the best team, you should strive to be the best among the rest of the teams."
