Midfielder Xhaka left the field at the beginning of the first half due to injury
Midfielder Granit Xhaka was hurt in the opening minutes of the match between Wolverhampton and Arsenal at Molineux Stadium. However, after a few minutes of calming down as well as being taken care of by the doctors, the captain of the Swiss national team was able to stand up and continue playing.
However, Xhaka could only hold on until the 16th minute before being pulled off the field by coach Arteta to make way for Fabio Vieira. In the context of the World Cup approaching, it is clear that neither the Spaniard nor Xhaka himself wanted the midfielder to say goodbye to the World Cup due to injury.
With Xhaka having to leave the field early, this really affected Arsenal's attacking play. The number of really dangerous opportunities that the top team possessed until the end of the first half was less than one hand. And it was not until the second half that the Gunners got goals thanks to the brilliance of midfielder Martin Odegaard to close the match with a 2-0 victory overall..
With 3 points in this match, Arsenal will widen the gap with rivals Man City - the team who suddenly lost in this round to Brentford to 5 points. It really couldn't be better for the Emirates Stadium team before the season returns after the 2022 World Cup.
