Odegaard for the double
Very good performance from Martin Odegaard tonight.
Always technically fair, the Norwegian was also decisive.
The Gunners captain scored two identical goals (18th, 31st) after two services from Granit Xhaka.
Odegaard took the opportunity to score his thirteenth and fourteenth goals of the season, and thus became the club's second top scorer this season behind Martinelli.
Mikel Arteta's paid picks
Mikel Arteta has decided to rotate slightly tonight after the heavy defeat against Manchester City (4-1).
In central defense, Jakub Kiwior, 23, had his first start in the league.
The Pole put in a good performance for his first London derby.
In midfield, Jorginho replaced Partey.
The Italian, always very intelligent, was technically very clean against his former club.
In attack, Trossard started in place of Martinelli.
Mikel Arteta also managed the changes well during the meeting, in particular with the entries of Tierney and Nelson in place of Zinchenko and Saka (73rd).
First goal for Madueke with Chelsea
One of the only satisfactions on the Chelsea side tonight.
The young Englishman was only playing his third game as a starter.
However, the 21-year-old striker was the most enterprising attacker on the Blues side.
He was rewarded with a fine goal after a marvelous pass from Kovacic behind Zinchenko (65th, 3-1).
His first goal with Chelsea.
FLOPS
An almost ineffective attack…
Certainly Madueke saved the honor with her first goal, but it's not enough.
The Blues had only two real chances in this game.
Including tonight's game, Chelsea have scored just two goals in their last eight games.
Not easy to find automatisms when the team changes with each match.
…And a defense that takes on water
The crisis is strong at Chelsea, which has just had a sixth game in a row without a win.
However, the Blues have the third best defense in the championship.
But tonight, Frank Lampard's men also failed in this area, like captain Azpilicueta directly guilty from the start of the game (5th, 0-0), fortunately without danger for his family.
But the inevitable happened.
Three goals conceded at the break, two of which are identical.
It's also unclear why Sterling was defending Odegaard on the edge of the box on the Gunners' second goal.
No clean sheet for Arsenal
Arsenal shines offensively, but does not reassure defensively.
The Gunners chained an eighth game without a clean sheet.
The last dates back to March 12.
If the victory in this final sprint remains the most important, the men of Arteta must show more serenity.
Odegaard and his teammates once again showed some signs of excitement at the end of the game, this time without much consequence.
