Winning Arsenal, Mikel Arteta Praises Kai Havertz
JAKARTA - Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta did not hesitate to praise after midfielder Kai Havertz, who played amazingly while jaking Brentford in the English Premier League match, Sunday, November 26 in the morning WIB. Havertz managed to overcome the deadlock and gave Arsenal a 1-0 win.
Havertz was added by Arteta in the 79th minute. Only 10 minutes later, he broke into Bentford's goal. The goal through his header turned out to bring Arsenal to win.
More than that, Arsenal managed to win the top position previously controlled by Manchester City which drew 1-1 against Liverpool.
Now, the Gunners have collected points 30. One point ahead of Man City who dropped to second place. Meanwhile, Liverpool are in third place with 28 points.
For Havertz, the goal was clearly a relief. How not, he had difficulty showing his best performance with Arsenal. In fact, this North London club paid a fortune, 60 million, from rival club Chelsea.
However, this German national team player actually sits on the bench more often. Luckily, when he was deployed against The Bees, he succeeded in determining the victory.
Arteta was also satisfied with the victory. He did not hesitate to praise Havertz's appearance.
"I'm sure everyone is happy with him. He deserves credit," Arteta said in response to the player's performance.
"He's an amazing player. He's the right soso player and won the game for us," he said.
Arteta also praised the team's performance. According to him, the players played very well and hoped to maintain their performance.
"I'm happy to see how they play and compete. I want them to be able to defend it," said Arteta.
