Henrikh Mkhitaryan left frustrated after Manchester United draw: “I think we deserved to win”

Arsenal extended their unbeaten run in all competitions to 20 games, however, were denied victory by Manchester United as they drew 2-2 at Old Trafford. Shkodran Mustafi opened the score in the 26th minute of the match, however, Anthony Martial scored the equalizer. Alexandre Lacazette’s goal on the second half restored the Gunners’ lead, and again, Manchester United equalized and this time Jesse Lingard scored. After the game, Arsenal and former Manchester United star Henrikh Mkhitaryan shared his thoughts on the game in an interview with Arsenal’s official website. "There is a lot of frustration because we should have won today," he told Arsenal Media after the game. "I think we deserved to win but we drew. We were trying to score the third goal but unfortunately, we couldn’t. "Even if you have tired legs, the most important thing is to be fresh in the brain, in the mind. If you force yourself, if you push yourself to get to the end, then you will do that. You don’t have to listen to your legs, even if they are heavy or it’s hard to play. You have to do the maximum." Their unbeaten run is the positive thing for the Armenia international. "Maybe that’s the positive to take from tonight, maybe it’s not. Everyone wanted to win today, especially at Old Trafford. We know that it’s always hard to win here. At the end of the day, we’re also happy to get this point and try to win the next games. We want to be in the top four, so it’s very important to win every game."
