Arsenal lost their first match of the season having come up short at Old Trafford. Manchester United came away as 3-1 victors but there were a number of decisions that went against the Gunners.
Gabriel Martinelli looked to have opened the scoring in the first half. However, Martin Odegaard was deemed to have fouled Christian Eriksen in the build-up and Arsenal’s goal was chalked off.
Mikel Arteta was not happy with the consistency of decision-making of officials. Striking a frustrated figure in the post-match press conference he gave prior examples where soft challenges had been made on Arsenal’s players, not given and cost the side.
