WCL 2nd qualifying round, first leg: Häcken 1-0 ArsenalTabby Tindell scores only goal of game in 77th minute
A laboured Arsenal sunk to a 1-0 defeat away to BK Hacken in the first leg of their Champions League Round 2 encounter. Tabitha Tindell’s second half strike was the difference on a night of few clear-cut chances to give Mak Lind’s side a famous win
The Arsenal manager, Jonas Eidevall, was left to rue his team’s lack of creativity as they produced just four shots on target across the match. “It’s always worrying in football when you’re not efficient with your goalscoring opportunities,” he said. “I think if we zoom out a little , it’s a correct analysis of it [not finishing chances]. It’s a combination today of good goalkeeping to finishing that is on very thin margins… I’m certain that if we continue to create, we will score goals.”
