Psv boss points at two moments which could have changed game in arsenal defeat

ARSENAL SMASHED PSV EINDHOVEN 7-1 IN THE FIRST LEG OF THEIR CHAMPIONS LEAGUE LAST 16 CLASH, BUT THE DUTCH SIDE'S MANAGER INSISTED THINGS COULD HAVE TURNED OUT DIFFERENTLY 06:37, 05 Mar

2025 PSV Eindhoven boss Peter Bosz has lamented his side for their capitulation against Arsenal. The Eredivisie title challengers were smashed 7-1 by the Gunners, who secured their record

away win in the Champions League. It all but ensures Mikel Arteta's side have reached the quarter-finals of this year's competition. It was a dreadful night for PSV, who had

finished ahead of PSG, Juventus and Manchester City in the league phase. They were utterly dominated at their Philips Stadion home, conceding four second-half goals to leave them with little

chance of progressing. Posz pulled no punches in his assessment of his side's difficult night, accepting the blame. But he pointed to two moments that could have seen the game swing in

his side's favour. READ MORE: Wayne Rooney admits 'very difficult' feeling as Arsenal set Champions League recordREAD MORE: Mikel Arteta celebrates new Arsenal record with

fresh challenge to Gunners stars The first was a remarkable miss from Ismael Saibari with the game goalless, the midfielder hit the bar with the goal gaping. The second was a challenge from

Myles Lewis-Skelly, that on another night could have seen the Arsenal star pick up a second yellow. Bosz told Prime Video: "Terrible night for us. Maybe two moments in the game - our

first chance after 15 minutes when we hit the bar and the second yellow were moments to come back in the game. Article continues below " Football wise we had no chance. We were not in

our best form. Arsenal played fantastic, we had no chance tonight. Poor from our side, absolutely. Not at all our football we play normally and Arsenal did really well. "We had a plan

we analysed them we thought that we could hurt them somewhere but if you look at how we defended, really poor. You can not be successful if you play this way. I can not imagine that I would

ever lose this big so the players were disappointed. "For us it's important in a couple of days to return to championship [Eredevisie]. We will analysis this game and help the

players, if you lose this big you need to help them. We have to accept it but it's hard. We have to do it quick because only 10 games to play so we need men now." Arsenal boss

Arteta hailed his side for their performance, with six different players netting a goal. But he insisted there remains work to do in next week's second leg to ensure their progression.

"I really enjoyed the match – thank you to the players for the performance they put in on a big night for us against a really good side. The way they went through in the last round

against Juventus was really impressive so the manner that we’ve done it, the way that we’ve played, the goals that we scored; thank you because it was a special night," he said. Article

London in a week’s time." JOIN OUR NEW WHATSAPP COMMUNITY _AND RECEIVE YOUR DAILY DOSE OF MIRROR FOOTBALL CONTENT. WE ALSO TREAT OUR COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO SPECIAL OFFERS, PROMOTIONS, AND
