Guardiola responds to Robertson incident during Liverpool vs Arsenal. During a recent Premier League match versus Arsenal, match official Constantine Hatzidakis elbowed Liverpool defender Andrew Robertson. Pep Guardiola, the manager of Manchester City, has finally responded to the event.
Guardiola, though, asserted that he was only made aware of the occurrence and did not witness it. The Spaniard explained that it was because he was watching the Gold Masters and his former team, Bayern Munich, in action. I heard it but didn’t see it since I was watching golf and Bayern Munich, he claimed (via Liverpool Echo). I only watched the highlights of this discussion, which involved the Andy Robertson incident.
Guardiola said, “They told me something happened, but I didn’t witness it, so I can’t comment, but it is strange if it happened. If it happened, as the people told me. Wow, it’s happened? Yes, it did, but I’m not sure what went on.”
At Anfield, the Reds managed to pull off an incredible 2-2 tie. Gabriel Martinelli gave Arsenal an early lead in the first half before Gabriel Jesus added to it. In order to tie the game at Anfield, Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino scored goals for the home team.
Aaron Ramsdale was crucial to Arsenal’s draw against Liverpool. Mohamed Salah was denied a victory by a stunning late stop from the goalie. Ramsdale finished with four saves overall, all of which came in the penalty area.
After the game, Mikel Arteta addressed the media regarding the goalie’s performance, saying (according to the official website of Arsenal): “You need your goalkeeper if you want to win and be in title races. Alisson has completed his required tasks how many times? You must possess that, as well as the keeper’s special moments. Today’s performance from our players was fantastic as well, and you need it to win at a place like that.”
Ramdale’s crucial last-ditch stop of Salah might be the deciding play in the championship match. Thanks to the actions of their shot-stopper, the Gunners earned one point. Despite having played one more game than Manchester City, they lead the Citizens by six points.
