Arsenal 2-2 Bayern Munich: Thomas Partey, other subs made a big impact- Mikel Arteta

Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta, has commended Ghanaian midfield Thoms Partey and other Arsenal substitutes for their performance against Bayern Munich in the UEFA Champions League.

Arsenal drew 2-2 with Bayern in the first leg of the Champions League quarterfinal played out at the Emirates Stadium.

Ghana’s Thomas Partey played 10 minutes in the game after replacing Kai Havertz in his first outing in this season’s competition after missing out on the group stage and Round of 16 stage games largely due to injuries.

Speaking in a post game press conference, Arteta rued Ben White’s missed chance but was impressed with the performance of his substitutes including Gabriel Jesus and Leandro Trossard who combined for Arsenal’s second goal and Thomas Partey.

“When you bring two or three players like we have done, with Alex (Zinchenko) straight away at half time to change a few things, and then with Leo (Trossard) and Gabby (Jesus), then Thomas (Partey) when it needs, because the game became a bit chaotic, and it was a big danger to lose it. I think they all had a big impact tonight” Arteta said according to Arsenal media.
