Seven Is The Number! English Press Rate Iwobi As Arsenal Snatch Draw Against Liverpool
Published: November 04, 2018
Super Eagles winger Alex Iwobi came off the bench Saturday evening at the Emirates Stadium to produce an inspired performance as Arsenal came from a goal down to salvage a 1-1 draw against Liverpool in the top drawer Premier League match of the weekend and maintain their unbeaten run after thirteen games in all competitions.
Iwobi assisted Alexandre Lacazette's equaliser and some English press have handed their players' ratings with the Nigerian international getting good reviews.
The4thOfficial.com rated the nippy forward 7/10 for his second half showing.
"LM: Alex Iwobi – 7/10."
Allarsenal.com also deemed Iwobi's performance worthy of a 7. Their assessment of the prodigy went thus:
"Alex Iwobi did well. The Nigerian international played a wonderful pass for the goal and looked lively throughout.
Pain In The Arsenal, a blog dedicated to Arsenal FC went a notch higher in the way they rated the player's impact after replacing Henrik Mikhitaryan with a 7.5/10.
"Intentional, direct, creative and driven. Provided a much needed attacking impetus down the left side, even after he moved to left back during the final 10 minutes or so.
"Provided the key pass of the game to set up Lacazette's goal also."
Arsenal will look to continue their unbeaten streak in their next match, an Europa League reverse leg clash against Sporting Lisbon who they pipped 1-0 in the previous meeting.
