Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta stormed out of his post-match interview with Sky Sports after his side were held to a 1-1 draw by Manchester United on Sunday. The Gunners saw their Premier League title hopes all by ended at Old Trafford as they finished the day 15 points behind table toppers Liverpool.
Arteta appeared to be rattled during the interview as he assessed his side’s underwhelming performance in the north west. And after being asked if he could answer a final question about the title race, the Spaniard bluntly replied: “No.” He then departed the interview without any further interaction.
Arsenal were out of sorts at Old Trafford as they struggled to get a foothold on the game. And the north London giants fell behind just before the interval as Bruno Fernandes fired in a free-kick from the edge of the area.
The home side continued to push forward after the break in search of a second, with Arsenal forced to defend for long periods of the game. Away goalkeeper David Raya was called in to action time and time again as he kept his side in the game.
And Arsenal eventually drew level with 16 minutes remaining as Declan Rice lashed the ball into the back of the net from the edge of the area. But the Gunners couldn’t kick on as Ruben Amorim’s men looked the more likely of the two sides to seal the win, with Raya pulling off an outstanding double save at the end to bag his side a point.
