HIGHLIGHTS | Arsenal vs Brighton (2-0) | Premier League | Pepe on fire
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 май 2021
- A fifth straight win to close out the Premier League season was not enough to secure European football next term.
A second successive brace from Nicolas Pepe gave us all three points on the final day of the season, but results elsewhere didn't go our way, meaning we finished eighth for the second year in a row.
But at least the fans, returning to the Emirates, had a victory to cheer - as well as two well-taken goals.
The team emerged from the tunnel to a roar that belied the 10,000 inside the stadium - our largest attendance since we faced West Ham in March 2020.
The energy from the stands was soon transmitted onto the pitch. Thomas Partey and Granit Xhaka both tried their luck in the very early stages, while Pepe had an effort charged down after being set up by Aubameyang.
We were looking bright in possession, and looked like we had taken the lead when Rob Holding bundled the ball just over the line from a corner, but it was disallowed for offside.
Gabriel hit the bar with a looping header from a deep Xhaka cross late in the half as we pressed for the opening goal.
We were making all of the running, as you expect with European football next season still up for grabs, but we could not capitalise on our pressure in the first half, and went in level at the break.
The scores from elsewhere at half-time had us moving up one place to eighth, but we could go no higher without getting earning all three points here.
More was needed, and just five minutes after the interval, we broke the deadlock. Calum Chambers fired in a low cross, Pepe controlled it with his left foot before crashing home with his right. It was his 15th of the season, and 10 minutes later he bagged number 16.
Martin Odegaard fed the Ivorian in the inside right position, and Pepe showed all the confidence of a man who's netted eight goals in his last 11 appearances, to slide the ball into the corner.
With Tottenham and Everton both trailing in their games, we were on course for seventh place, and European football again.
We had no intention of sitting back on the lead though. Thomas Partey came within inches of scoring his first Gunners goal when he controlled Xhaka's pass, then smashed a shot against the bar with the keeper Robert Sanchez beaten.
However, as news of Tottenham's late goals filtered around the stadium, the atmosphere became more subdued, and ultimately our final-day win was not enough.

Imagine if Pepe hit this form earlier in the season
He would have still gotten bench for willian
He would have still gotten bench for willian
@@courtneyhutson5719 no he had many chances
Pépé is finally back where he was since he left LOSC Lille.
And you surely know what a big mess happened between that time.
Arteta did miracle to take him back to this level again. 👌☘️⚽
@@karasavasgaming And he performed every time he got selected, but he wasn't preferred.
Man how I wish partey scored.
He’s working on his shooting, when he gets that ! We are going to see some wonder goals!! Partey is going to be phenomenal
Hello
@@Sopheap954 🙋♂️
Same!
Unlucky
Partey Showed us some amazing potiential! Can’t wait to see him in action next year! Great finish to the prem season! Good luck for season 21/22!!!
Why couldn’t arsenal get a younger option like locatellli or Ibrahim sanagre Check all three stats
Pepe needs to be considered a key player for next season and start majority of games! No more Willian! 🔴⚪️👊🏻
😅
Defo! He's earned that RW spot now.
I think we will sell Laca and Martinelli/Saka will play LW with Auba as ST.
Espeacially in that RW position !!!
@@OkA-007 no Martinelli strike and Saka lw
@@OkA-007 ngok.....we need sub in every position...
Pepe is going to tear up the league even better next season. With the right players around him and the right system, he will get better and better can't wait!
you said the same thing last season didn't you?
@@necromancer7075 based on very little, not this time
@@necromancer7075 we did but to be fair he improved on the last season why shouldnt he improve again
I only found that he actually struggles when the full back behind him didn't overlap.
@@248.n_n replacing bellerin will help
Partey worked on his shooting ... he's improving
Izo
Sure,if he hits the target,it will be unstoppable.
hit the crossbar like he did in the last training video haha
Meanwhile elneny scored like 3 bangers this season
Get ready for Nicolas Pepe next season!!
I love the guy. If he starts all games with a constant 1st team RB. He'll be insane
@@thabisokevinmbili9158 wait a minute... Firstteam RB?? Are you joking me...
@@Ayam.plastik Lmfao. I think he meant RW.
Yup same was said the year before
Where tf has he been since he got here
Partey is going to score an absolute ripper one day at the Emirates, and it'll be beautiful
His long shots are insane, been watching him in la liga for years
@@brandonhook3020 what?
He's shooting was awful at la liga
Don't lie m8😂
@@ihalamadrid4153 obviously not all of his shots are on target but they are beautiful to watch, especially when he came out of no where
@@brandonhook3020 in la liga
He was the 2nd best cdm after casemiro
And perhaps behind Renato tapia
But his shooting was awful there
That's why Simeone played him in a pivot
@@brandonhook3020 pair him with someone good
He's world class in a double pivot
Pépé with 21 Goals/Assists in just 27 starts this season....
Imagine if all that time given to Willian was given to Pépé 😳
*Looks like Partey was eager to get his first Arsenal goal* 😆
Hopefully we start seeing that next season
Good goals by Pepe. Partey and Odegaard solid as well. We end a crap season on a high
Have u finally changed your mind? Lol
@@justiceoforiszn5390 I can confirm I have. 😂
@@omaryahya7258 but odegaard is leaving now right ? he was only on loan until end of season i think ..
@@omaryahya7258 looool
@@haakonhamer9122 yeah he is. Think he will return to Real Madrid
I thought that Granit Xhaka was the heart of every Arsenal attack in this game. Credit where it's due
All I see is Xhaka initiating the attacks
This season is catastrophic but somehow we finished with more points compared to last season lmao
If we had a good start😪
And 6 points off top 4 with 3rd strongest defence 😅
@@Mmm-le9dp there are things like these we have positives
@@ascore142 exactly, had a bad start but have been the second best team in the league since boxing day.
@@Alex-dg2dn we had pretty bad season but i am taking the positives this time
What a lovely brace again by Pepe. If you look at the number of goals he's scored this season for a winger that wasn't involved for most of the start of the season, it's hugely impressive. He's gonna be major for us next season. All hail King Pepe.
Hopefully so
Hopefully so
Watched the whole video. I’m expecting to see Grealish, Bissouma, Kroos and Messi at the carpet next season thanks lads
We have Leo Messo?
@@afccc7865 😂😂😂
Haaland and mbappe are shouts too
How about you waking up from that dream
@@ismailaboderin6745 yeah bit to unrealistic but i think we should sign kdb neymar hakimi kimmich and maybe davies
Partey was so close he could have done one of those dances kaybe😅
Xhaka and Odegaard had a great game
if only we could have xhaka/odegaar/partey in midfield for the whole season. could've been so different.
odegaard was really good today it felt like he was everywhere on the pitch running for 3 people. motm for me even though Pepe scored 2 goals he wasn't the best today
People keep saying to let Odegaard go because we have Smith-Rowe, but the weight of pass on that second goal from Pépé is something very few players are capable of.
I take few match killing performance in a game with par performance in daygame. He can be the game killer that Wenger missed through Kroenke era gameplay.
@@stellar1252 ESR= Ramsey Odegaard=Ozil
@@matiascantillana7474 ESR is more like KDB.Willock is like Ramsey
@@jamunabose1543 Agreed, you know football.
Why is no one talking about Chambers though? Man has been great at RB.
Precisely ‼‼
Chambers can cross properly!
Man it feels soo good to have fans back!
COYG
We all Thought Pepe arsenal career was over but has been brilliant recently And hopefully does it next season
Good thing there’s literally no pressure competitions to compete next season so Pepe can finally run rampant!
I’m expecting 20 goals from pepe next season. He’s actually world class
Partey is playing really well in the final 3rd play him as an attacking midfielder with odegaard
The two Madrid are on top 1&2, two Milan on top 1&2, two Man are on top 1&2, what a season for brother clubs amazing.
fantastic nicolas pepe
Let’s take this performance into next season 🔥🔥🔥
Need a Pepe goals compilation.
Partty 🔥🔥🔥🔥👏👏👏👏
I hope pepe continues like this next season
WE want to see ourselves in the top four
Our defending also improving
❤️❤️ COYG
We must raise our standards as fans and hope for our team to fight for the league!
Nice one Partey, glimpses of what we will be expecting from you next season, shooting the ball from outside the box
Sign bissouma. Quality player...
Chambers' improvement after his injury was really something else. Can't wait to see more of him next season 🤞
First 15 games of the season were shocking but our consistency since has been great. If we can continue this form into next season with a few additions we will move up the table. And no European football should help too.
You forget that Arsenal won its first two games of the season.
@@iykeharrison9161 last 24 games
= 2nd most points gained in the prem
@@iykeharrison9161 yes but arteta messed up his tactics with 3-4-3 and got only 3 points in 8 matches….. thus why we are in this position with at least 10 points lower … :(
@@yadavpanday470 Lets not forget that during that stint - no CAM's in the squad, ESR injured. The only way to create any chances was through the wings, and that didn't work since we don't have a striker that can head the ball. More fault is on the recruitment team of Arsenal for not bringing in a CAM who can create chances through the middle.
@@RpS- yess
But arteta could have played 433 with 3 mid ceballos.....but 343 is defensive ....and can't play a link up with each other and lose ball while just passing toward wingss.. thus why we defense most of the time during match and lose with just one goal....
I love to see Pepe like this, it’s warms my heart!
I hope Willock will be playing a lot next season...doing amazing at Newcastle
I had waited for this
Pepe found his shooting boots
Thank you David Luiz for everything, for helping Arsenal winning the FA Cup and FA Community Shields. Goodbye David Luiz.
Man finally partey has score the goal he craved pray he scores more
Hopefully with new players next season at Arsenal we will sha be a great contender. Unto the next season we move 👍
Beautiful goals 😍
Pepe🔥 let's not overhype though.
So so good to hear the fans roar from the goals!!!
Finally d video thank God
The boys be giving me goosebumps ☺️☺️... I kept smiling all through the game...feeling so relaxed and Confident... Well played boys👏👏👏
great works guys...may greater success in the upcoming season
nice to see you guys back into the stadium again...
Partey will be a beast of a player next season hopefully 🤞💯
Great game Thomas 🔥🔥🔥
Pepe🔥
What a performance by the lads today! Just wish we had the last 4 performances in the Europa League. Part of me is glad we didn't go to that conference whatever. We can focus on EPL and the Fa cup. I need us to get Bisouma, Emerson royale and Saliba needs to come back
Master-class of Pépé
Pepe and Partey 👏🏾✨ hope for next season
Pepe is so fun tp watch ! CLASS
Fantastic goals from Pepe 🤸🤺
Excellent
The hardworking that Partey is doing to get that goal!
Pepe was practicing his right foot in the training video, hard work pays off.
He was spectacular
Partey is on fire. Well done guys
Return to the Glory days of Gunners. Total team work

Pepe he've got a lot of confidence! Expect the next season
That's why I never doubted Him & had a strong feeling that there's something special in Nicholai Pepe,Finally he proves
Pepe on 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Pepe is back to his best✅💪🏿
Pepe❤❤
Partey will be a classic player to watch next season 🙌🏼🇬🇭
5 wins in a row, i wish it could be this consistent
Pepe really hitting good form. Partey getting much closer to a goal now too, next season Thomas!
Awesome performance from Nicolas, it is unfortunate that his gear running at the very end of the campaign. Hopefully he can maintain that feeling and perform similarly and better whole next season!
no doubt at all in Pepe
