In the face of disappointment, Odegaard urged his teammates to stay united, learn from their mistakes, and support each other. Despite the setback, he remains hopeful that Arsenal will rise stronger from this experience.
As Arsenal’s Champions League journey ends, the call for unity and resilience from Odegaard and Arteta sets the tone for the team’s future endeavors.
