Arsene-Wenger-Sad

Arsenal Manager Arsene Wenger has reacted to his side’s 2 -1 loss to Swansea at the Emirates stadium on Wednesday.

Joel Campbell slid to hook the Gunners into an early lead but Swansea levelled when Wayne Routledge side-footed home.

Olivier Giroud and Alexis Sanchez struck the bar before Ashley Williams pounced to earn a crucial Swansea win.

Speaking after the match Arsene Wenger said Arsenal were unlucky.

“I believe we were really unlucky with our finishing and some decisions today. They had two shots on target and two goals.

“We stopped playing before the first goal because there was a foul on Mesut Ozil. There were hands around his neck and it should have been a free-kick for us.

“We need to bounce-back very quickly now.

“Petr Cech is injured. I think it will keep him out of the game against Tottenham at the weekend. But I have full-confidence in David Ospina.”
