Arteta: This tour has brought many positive results


The Gunners Arsenal lost 0-1 to the Lilywhites Tottenham Hotspur in a friendly match in Hong Kong, but Arteta said the team gained a lot of positive things from the tour and was happy with the players' overall performance.


In the 45th minute of the game, Sarr stole the ball from Lewis Skelly and scored a long shot from the center circle, helping Tottenham Hotspur take the lead 1-0.


In the second half, Arsenal was unable to break the opponent's goal and eventually lost to Tottenham Hotspur 0-1 in this derby.


Arsenal manager Arteta said in an interview, “From the perspective of preparation, whether it is the opponent we faced, the atmosphere of the game or the stadium environment, everything is very good. Although the result is not what we want, there are indeed many gains to take away. Whether it is the training itself or the performance of the players, there are many things worthy of affirmation, and we will continue to move forward.”


"On this tour, I want to especially thank the fans who have been with us for the past 10 to 12 days. They made it a real honor for us to represent this club. We have a special relationship and we are truly grateful to them. As for the overall performance of the three tournaments, I am very satisfied."


In addition, new signings such as Mosquera and Žekeres made their Arsenal debuts in this match. Arteta said, "What surprises me is that whenever these new players participate in training or games, they show an excellent attitude and quality, which makes me very happy. As I said, this tour has really brought a lot of positive gains."


"We've built a really strong bond among our players and staff, and I think everyone really appreciates where they are right now. It's been a long two weeks, with a lot happening and a lot of adaptation in preparation. But the attitude everyone has shown in achieving this goal, especially everyone who has prepared this tour for us, deserves a huge thank you."


On the other hand, Arsenal will play Villarreal in their next friendly at the Emirates Stadium before taking part in the Emirates Cup against Athletic Bilbao.
