Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher believes that if Arsenal fail to win the Premier League title this season. Son Heung-min one-on-one miss against Manchester City will haunt them for a long time.
In the final game of the season, in addition to the “Gunners” having to beat Everton. They also have to hope that the “Sailboats” do not beat West Ham at home in order to advance to their first league title in 30 years.
In the latest match, Pep Guardiola’s team won 2-0 against Spurs while the team was leading 1-0. There was a moment when Son Heung-Min came out alone late in the game. But his shot was saved by Stefan. Ortega, who if he shoots the game will end in a draw.UFABET
Carragher believes Son’s ‘mistake’ will haunt Arsenal fans for the next decade. And compared it to Vincent Kompany’s goal against Leicester five years ago which put City ahead of Liverpool ahead of the final game of the 2018/19 season.
Carragher told the Sky Sports podcast.
“Tottenham have caused City more problems than any other team in a way. We haven’t seen in a long time in terms of the chances they’ve created.”
“Ortega, that one guy won them the Premier League. Of course there’s a lot of things that happened throughout the season. But when you look at the game, if he hadn’t made the save at 1-0, Arsenal would have won the league, it was that close.”
“When I look back a few years ago as a Liverpool fan, to see Vincent Kompany score against Leicester, that’s the moment for Arsenal fans now.”
“Son’s opportunity will be a moment that Arsenal fans will remember for the next five, 10 years, even if they win the title in the next five years – and have the opportunity to do so because They are a great team and have a great manager. That matter will continue to haunt them.”
