Viktor Gyokeres was 'furious' after Arsenal lost in the final moments

Although considered the stronger side, Arsenal was beaten by Aston Villa with a goal scored in the dying moments. New signing Viktor Gyokeres expressed that losing this way is always tough to take.

Traveling to Villa Park with a depleted squad, Arsenal couldn't avoid defeat. Buendia's goal in the 90+5 minute helped Aston Villa secure a 2-1 win over Arsenal, thereby keeping all three points at home.

After the match, Viktor Gyokeres shared his thoughts as follows: "Of course, we are disappointed with this result. The feeling right now is far from comfortable. However, this is just early December and there are many games ahead. Arsenal can always find positives, but losing a match is always very tough. It’s difficult now, but we will quickly focus on the next game."

Additionally, Gyokeres hopes the team can learn from this disappointment and use it as motivation for future challenges: "We must look at this loss in a positive way. Arsenal needs to work harder to create more chances and try to score more goals... Clearly, Arsenal just needs to improve slightly in every aspect. That’s football. If you score in the last few seconds or minutes, it’s an incredible feeling, so it goes both ways.

Today, unfortunately, things went the other way. It’s tough and a bit painful, but you learn from losses like this. If we stay focused, Arsenal can definitely achieve the best results."

Regarding Arsenal, the club faces the risk of losing another key player after the defeat to Aston Villa when Leandro Trossard limped off in the 86th minute. Previously, Trossard had missed 2 Premier League matches due to an ankle injury, which limited him to the bench against Villa. If Trossard is absent during the Christmas period, Arsenal will definitely suffer, especially since Gabriel, William Saliba, and Kai Havertz are already sidelined with injuries.
