Mikel Arteta expressed frustration after Arsenal's 1-0 loss to PSG in the Champions League semi-final, attributing the defeat to injuries that sidelined key players. Arsenal, missing several starters, conceded early to Ousmane Dembele and struggled to assert themselves against a fully fit PSG team. Arteta noted that while Arsenal improved during the match, crucial chances went unconverted. He believes the team can still advance with a strong return leg performance, echoing their earlier comeback against Real Madrid.
"Today, the margins were very small. They started the game better for two reasons... Then the individual quality decided the first goal."
"It's clear [why PSG were better]. They're very consistent. They go to the end of the season... with all the players and the squad available at their best."
