The renowned London club delighted Arsenal fans with another historic result. The team, led by Mikel Arteta, finished October without conceding a goal, setting a record rarely seen in English football history.
In the League Cup round of 16, the Gunners defeated Brighton 2-0 to advance to the next stage of the competition. This victory was not only another triumph for the team but also a significant statistical achievement for October - Arsenal didn't concede a goal in any of their six matches throughout the month.
No other team in the English top division has achieved such a result. Usually, clubs cannot maintain a stable defense due to the intensive schedule in the middle of the season and the load in various competitions. However, Arsenal managed to keep their opponents goalless in their last six games.
Mikel Arteta's players are not only reliable in defense but also effective in attack. During the month, the team won all competitions - this, in turn, further uplifted the team's morale.
Notably, Arsenal last conceded a goal on September 28th. At that time, Newcastle striker Nick Voltemade scored a goal for the Gunners in the Premier League. Since then, the London goal has remained untouched for over 540 minutes.
Coach Arteta praised his players' discipline and stability after the game. He emphasized that the team sees defensive action as a key part of the team's philosophy. "Such results don't come easily. "Every player is diligently fulfilling their duties, that's why we achieved the record," he said.
Thus, Arsenal finished October undefeated and goalless, setting a new standard in English football. Many experts consider this result to be the result of the disciplined system brought by Mikel Arteta. Now the team intends to maintain the same rhythm in November and strengthen its position in the championship race.
