Many Arsenal FC fans may be sharing angry tweets with the team on the verge of collapse.
Manchester City forward Erling Haaland scored a clutch goal in the 65th minute of its home match against Arsenal on Sunday, which lifted the club to a 2-1 victory over its English Premier League rival. It’s a critical win for Manchester City (20-7-5, 67 points), which now trails league-leading Arsenal (21-7-5, 70 points) by just three points. That should leave the Gunners fan base feeling even more uptight with five matches remaining in Premier League play.
Arsenal’s loss to Manchester City creates even more reason for concern
“The online meltdown will be epic,” CBS Sports’ Troy Deeney said following Arsenal’s loss.
The social media vitriol will only grow if Arsenal doesn’t get its act together heading into its match against Newcastle United (12-6-15, 42 points) on Saturday. The team has now lost two of its last four matches. Manchester City, meanwhile, has won two of its past four matches, while the others ended in draws. Note: Wins count for three points in the Premier League, draws count for one, while losses yield none.
