Gabriel: With Rice taking the set kick, we believe we can score a goal
In the third round of the UEFA Champions League, Arsenal defeated Atletico Madrid 4-0. Gabriel, who scored a goal, said in an interview after the game that the team invested a lot in set pieces.
Gabriel said: "Yes, we are very happy, we know that this is playing at home, in front of the fans, and our opponent is a strong team like Atletico Madrid. Everyone performed well and we need to continue. This is an important victory and we need to enjoy it, but we also need to rest. There is also an important game on Sunday (against Crystal Palace).
We invested a lot in set pieces, not only Just me, the whole team. When we go into the penalty area, we have confidence, and with Rice (taking the set piece), we also believe (that we can score goals).
That gives us a lot of confidence going forward, and the season has just started and we need to work more closely together and we need to trust each other to achieve important results this season."
