The Arsenal midfield star Martin Odegaard appeared in press statements after being eliminated from the UEFA Champions League semi-finals against Paris Saint-Germain, losing 1-0 in the first leg and then 2-1 in the second leg.

The player said: "We did our best, we started the match very well. We were the better team, we controlled the game, and we had some dangerous chances, but in the end, it wasn't enough."

He added in his remarks: "We played well inside the penalty area during both matches, but we weren't good enough. We commend the opponent's goalkeeper who made some great saves. It wasn't enough, and that is painful."

He emphasized: "Inside the penalty area, especially today, what we did with the ball between the two penalty areas, we controlled the ball and controlled the match from the start. We weren't strong enough inside the penalty area, and that's where we lost the match."

He concluded: "It's painful, we wanted to achieve something great in the league and the Champions League, but we couldn't do that, we feel a huge disappointment, but we must remain strong and united. We learn lessons, endure the pain, and use it to come back stronger, we need to learn from this. We did a lot of good things, but that's not enough. Matches are decided in front of the goal, and here we need to be more focused. We must utilize this pain well."
