Arsenal star Bukayo Saka argued he "had to go down" when quizzed on the penalty he won in the Gunners' Premier League victory at Chelsea.
The England international went to ground after being held by Blues defender Cesar Azpilicueta in the closing stages, scoring the resulting penalty to hand Mikel Arteta's side a 4-2 victory. It was the first penalty he had taken since seeing his spot-kick saved by Gianluigi Donnarumma in the Euro 2020 final, and he found the corner with Edouard Mendy diving the wrong way.
The win moved Arsenal level with fourth-place Tottenham with both teams still having six games to play. After three successive defeats, it potentially puts even more pressure on the upcoming North London Derby, and Saka attempted to dismiss doubts over Jon Moss' decision to point to the spot.
