Riccardo Calafiori reacts after Arsenal draw at Man City
Arsenal defender Riccardo Calafiori has sent his reaction following the club's 2-2 draw against Manchester City in the Premier League.
Calafiori announced his arrival with a fantastic wondergoal at the Etihad Stadium and it was not sufficient to secure a victory.
Gabriel Magalhaes put the Gunners 2-1 ahead in the opening half, but Leandro Trossard was sent off just before the break.
The second half saw the Gunners in ultra defensive mode, but they eventually conceded through John Stones in stoppage time.
Speaking after the game, Calafiori said that he is so happy to have scored in his first league start, but he is bit disappointed with the result.
He said: "I am so happy to have scored and I am a bit disappointed that we didn't win. It was so tough.
"We reacted really good and the second half was extremely tough, more mentally than physically."
With the result, Arsenal have jumped to fourth in the Premier League and they are currently two points adrift of leaders City.
