Morgan blasts Arsenal’s ‘abysmal’ defending, explains how they were ‘exposed’

Piers Morgan has beaten in Arsenal in a destructive tirade about their bad defense and lack of attacking threat because they were dumped from the Champions League by Paris Saint-Germain.

A spectacular attack by Fabian Ruiz and a curled effort by Achraf Hakimi ensured that Arsenal lost 2-1 in the night and aggregated 3-1 and will go without silverware for another season.

Bukayo Saka scored a late goal and David Raya saved Vitinha's place kick, but it was not enough for the Gunners to reach their first Champions League final since 2006.

The aim of Hakimi, which the hosts took three in the badger and put an end to realistic Arsenalhopes, came after an error due to the defense of Arteta.

Thomas Partey did not succeed in removing a weak cross from Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, allowing Ousmane Dembele to roll the ball to the Moroccan goal scorer.

Arsenal fan Morgan regretted their weak defense.

In a message on X he wrote: 'Abysmal F ****** defending. Arsenal is completely surpassed – again – by PSG. And our lack of a striker has never been exposed than in these two games. '

He added later: 'Better Team won. End.'

Injuries to Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus have forced Arsenal to use Mikel Merino as an emergency striker, in which the Spanish midfielder previously described his new role as 'crazy'.

The 28-year-old has won compliments for adapting to a new forward position and played alongside Saka and Gabriel Martinelli in the front three of Arsenal.

Saka, who recovered a spark of hope for his goal, was left with disbelief after missing an open goal in the semi -final.

The winger in England skated a sudden chance with only 10 minutes left from just a few meters after Riccardo Calafiori's Cross Beat Gianluigi Donnarumma.

The attacker was sitting at the goal post with his head in his hand while fans wondered what would have been when he had converted.

The Noord -Londers have still not won a trophy since they picked up the FA Cup in Mikel Arteta's first season in the club in 2020.

In the meantime, PSG, who now has defeated three Premier League parties in the Knockouts, wants to become the second French team ever to win the competition after Marseille in 1993.

They have already won Ligue 1 and completed the league title with six more games.

They are confronted with Inter Milan, who has eliminated Barcelona in a classic of all time in the Allianz Arena in Munich on 31 May.
