English Press Rate Iwobi For Arsenal's Consolation Goal In Europa League Defeat

Nigeria and Arsenal forward Alex Iwobi was one of the few players that had a good game in the Gunner's embarrassing 4-1 defeat to Chelsea in the final of the 2019 UEFA Europa League on Wednesday evening.

Allnigeriasoccer.com presents the views of some of the media after the match at the Olympic Stadium, Baku.

The Daily Express wrote glowingly on the contributions of the Nigerian despite coming off the bench.

"SUB: Alex Iwobi (on for Torreira, 67 mins) – 7."

"Announced d his arrival with a stunning volley to give Arsenal hope and played with good intent."

The London Evening Standard also rated the Nigerian highly despite coming off the bench in the second half and it was a 7/10 albeit there was no text written for all the players in action on Wednesday.

"For www.90mins.com rated the Nigerian a 6 out of 10.".

There has been widespread rumours that the winger could welcome new additions in his position next season which hampers his chances of regular football.
