Odegaard expressed his disappointment following Arsenal’s loss to Brighton at the Emirates Stadium, acknowledging the significant blow it dealt to the Gunners.

Arsenal struggling to understand how they lost

In an interview with Sky Sports, the former Real Madrid midfielder admitted, “Yeah, it feels like that [whether the title is over]. It’s going to be very difficult now, we have to be honest. It is tough to take.”

Reflecting on the match, Odegaard expressed bewilderment at Arsenal’s performance, particularly in the second half, stating, “The way we played, particularly in the second half, I don’t know what happened, to be honest. It feels like there’s no hope now.”

The defeat against Brighton added further disappointment to Arsenal’s already underwhelming season, leaving their hopes of clinching the Premier League title in tatters. With limited games remaining, the gap between Arsenal and the top of the table has become insurmountable, forcing Odegaard to face the grim reality that their title aspirations are all but extinguished.

During the match, Brighton’s Julio Enciso, Deniz Undav, and Pervis Estupinan found the back of the net, securing a convincing victory over Mikel Arteta’s side. Arsenal’s lackluster performance was evident as they struggled to contain Brighton’s attacking prowess, resulting in a comprehensive defeat.

The loss not only dealt a severe blow to Arsenal’s title hopes but also highlighted the team’s inconsistencies and weaknesses throughout the season. Despite occasional glimpses of brilliance, their inability to maintain consistency has proven detrimental to their ambitions.

As Arsenal grapples with the aftermath of this defeat, they will be left to ponder their future prospects and reassess their goals for the remainder of the season. While their chances of winning the Premier League may have diminished significantly, there is still an opportunity to salvage their campaign and strive for a strong finish.

The disappointment expressed by Odegaard serves as a reflection of the team’s collective sentiment, as they come to terms with the reality of their dwindling title hopes.
