We can all agree that Arsenal's first goal shouldn't have happened, but does that mean they didn't deserve to lead this first half? Absolutely not. They completely nullified Spurs' buildup and denied them any opportunity to play over the press. Sterling often defended the right half-space and jumped Gray and Spence while Timber backed him. Havertz closed down from the left, where Trossard tightly marked Porro. Meanwhile, all of Partey, Rice and Odegaard at times mark Spurs' midfielders. Gabriel and Saliba gave Solanke no breath to room at the back. Complete domination without the ball.
