Arsenal beat Paris Saint-Germain 2-0 at home in the second round of the Champions League stage in the early hours of this morning. After the match, Arsenal player Havertz was interviewed by the club's official, sharing his thoughts on the match and his personal feelings.
Speaking about the Emirates Stadium, Havertz said: "It's like home, it's a great place to play. It's a great atmosphere and the support of the fans is very encouraging. Sometimes the game may not go well, but the support of the fans is very important for us. We can feel their passion on the pitch and that gives me a lot of help and confidence."
Havertz also spoke about his performance, "I can still improve, I had two or three good chances every game and I want to get better and score more goals. It's been a good start to the season and I can improve in a lot of areas. I will continue to work hard and try to contribute more goals and assists to the team."
On the team's stellar play early in the season, Havertz said, "Look at the players we have with the ball, they are able to control the ball outside of the box, which creates more opportunities for our offense. I'm tall and like to take up space and help the team make runs. The tactic worked well today and we trained a lot for it."
Havertz also mentioned, "Playing soccer is a pleasure when you have such great players around you. This is just the beginning of the season and we can do better. We're looking forward to the upcoming games and hope to keep the momentum going."
In conclusion, Havertz said, "I think we all enjoyed the game today, especially in the first half, we were the better team and showed what we can do. It's fantastic to play in a place like the Emirates, the atmosphere was great and it was a great game. We will continue to work hard and bring more great games to the fans."
