Mikel Arteta Walks Out Of Interview After Manchester United Draw

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta walked out of a Sky Sports interview after a dismal 1-1 draw with Manchester United.

The tie put his team 15 points behind leaders Liverpool FC, increasing concerns about the Premier League title race.

The Gunners dropped points for the third time in a row, after losing 1-0 at home to West Ham and drawing 0-0 at Nottingham Forest.

Arsenal dominated the first half, but were punished for their lack of attacking threat when Bruno Fernandes scored a stoppage-time free kick.

Declan Rice’s goal and several crucial David Raya stops in the second half saw them leave with a 1-1 draw.

That will do little to deter Arne Slot’s unstoppable Reds march toward the title.

Arsenal dominated the first half, but were punished for their lack of attacking threat when Bruno Fernandes converted a stoppage-time free kick.

Declan Rice scored and David Raya made many key saves in the second half to secure a 1-1 draw.

That will do little to derail Arne Slot’s inexorable Reds march to the championship.

Asked if he the title race is over in the press conference, having walked out when asked the same question by Sky Sports, the Arsenal boss said: “I don’t want to say that, but today the frustration is that we haven’t won a game.

“We know the urgency and are obligated to win every single match if you want to have any chance of doing that. I don’t think it’s the right moment to talk about that anyway.” Arteta was more candid about Fernandes’ free-kick, appearing to dispute the location it was taken from.
