Arsenal striker, Viktor Gyokeres, has given an excuse for his side’s Premier League 2-1 loss to Bournemouth on Saturday.
Despite finding the net himself, Gyokeres couldn’t prevent the Gunners from falling to the Cherries at the Emirates Stadium.
Junior Kroupi and Alex Scott scored the goals for Bournemouth against Mikel Arteta’s side.
Speaking to BBC Sport after the final whistle, Gyokeres said. “We had some chances toward the end.
“The pitch was a bit dry, to be honest, so that didn’t help. But as I said, we all need to do better and take our chances.”
Arsenal have now turned their attention to European action as they welcome Sporting CP in the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final on Wednesday at Emirates Stadium.
