Arsenal's away draw against Bayern Munich saw captain Ødegaard discuss the team's performance.

In Wednesday's Champions League match, Arsenal drew 2-2 away to Bayern Munich. After the game, captain Martin Ødegaard gave an interview, sharing his thoughts on the match, his assists, and the upcoming schedule.

Speaking about the result, Ødegaard said frankly: "To be honest, a draw might be a fair result, but I feel we also had a chance to win the game."

Ødegaard analyzed the course of the match: "We started strong and took the lead, but then fell into a passive position. Against a strong team like Bayern, with their man-marking and physical play, the whole team fought back and managed to get at least a point, which was excellent. It's a bit of a shame we didn't win, but it was still a strong performance."

During the match, Ødegaard delivered a precise long pass in his own half, assisting Eberrej Eze to score the opening goal. Recalling the play, he said, "It was definitely a good pass. I saw him start to make a run, and there was space behind him, so I passed the ball to him. I'm glad he wasn't offside."

Regarding the significance of this draw, Ødegaard believes the team gained a lot: "Although there are still some areas that need improvement, there are many positive aspects."

After a 15-game unbeaten run in the Champions League, the team has set its sights on their Premier League home game against Everton this weekend. Ødegaard said: "This is the life of a professional player, and it's what we want. Now we need to recover well and prepare for another test, and we're looking forward to playing at home."
