After the game, Mikel Arteta said his Arsenal team was better in the second leg against Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), even though the scoreline was negative.
Arsenal got knocked out of the Champions League in the semi-final by PSG with a 1-3 aggregate score, after PSG won the second leg 2-1 in Paris.
Arsenal really do look like a better team.
They dominated ball possession 54% to 46% and had 2.91 expected goals compared to PSG’s 1.74.
The underlying numbers showed that they should’ve won the game, but football isn’t played on paper.
Since the story can be seen differently on the pitch, many people still think Arsenal were better.
However, some also think they’re not, as Luis Enrique said at his own press conference.
That’s why perspective matters, and tactical analysis helps you understand the state of the game better.
This tactical analysis will show you what happened during the game, how Arteta outsmarted Enrique in some parts of the game, and how Enrique outsmarted Arteta in others.
With just three rounds to go in the season, the Austrian Bundesliga is home to one of the most exciting and closest title races in European and world football this season.
Only four points separate the top four sides, with defending champions Sturm Graz narrowly leading the pack ahead of Austria Wien, Wolfsberger AC, and Red Bull Salzburg, in that order.
Last season saw Salzburg’s decade-long monopoly on the league come to an end.
Sturm won only their fourth-ever Austrian championship and first in 13 years, in what proved to be a close title race right until the end of the campaign.
But this season has gone one further as both clubs are once again in the mix for the title.
At the same time, Austria Wien and Wolfsberger are also part of this thrilling race, with the former looking to become the Ă–sterreichischer Meister for the first time in a dozen years while the latter is seeking to claim their first crown in club history.
But what could separate these four sides between now and May 25th, by which a champion will definitely be crowned?
This data analysis will examine the teams’ performances across different metrics and data points, both in the regular season and in the championship round of the campaign.
