Player Ratings
Aaron Ramsdale 8 | Star player:-
Made a big save to deny Salah when the score was 2-1 in the second-half, and another massive one late on to thwart Darwin Nunez. Then produced two stunning saves at the death to deny Salah and Konate.
Ben White 6 :-
The right-back has been excellent in recent weeks, however he struggled today.
Rob Holding 6 :-
Was largely solid overall evethough he gave away a penalty.
Gabriel Maghalaes 7.5 :-
Was tasked with dealing with Salah for much of the game and did well. Stepped up and lead the defence well.
Oleksander Zinchenko 6:-
Had some nice moments, especially when Arsenal were zipping it about in the opening half an hour.
Thomas Partey 8 :-
Absolutely immense in the midfield. Brilliant throughout the game.
Granit Xhaka 6.5 :-
Did so much dirty work for the team. Decent game for him
Martin Odegaard 6.5 :-
Pretty quiet throughout the game. One of two decent balls through to Martinelli and Saka other than that pretty quiet throughout the game.
Gabriel Jesus 8:-
Made it three goals in his last two games by heading home here. Led the line really well, tracking back and helping the defence too when needed.
Martinelli 8 | Star Player :-
Opened the scoring with a well-taken finish and had an excellent game. Setup Arsenal’s second goal and caused Alexander-Arnold so many problems.
Bukayo Saka 7 :-
The quietest of Arsenal’s front-three. Created a good chance for Jesus in the first-half with a cross.
