Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta said his players were fuming <\/strong>\u2060<\/strong>after losing 3-1 to Real Betis in Dublin on Wednesday, though the Spaniard \u200cwas pleased with their reaction to the pre-season defeat.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Betis<\/a> \u200cpunished a series of defensive errors to \u200cscore three times in the first half<\/a> through \u200cRodrigo Riquelme<\/a>, Nelson Deossa<\/a> and Pablo Fornals<\/a>, \u200cwith Arsenal<\/a> responding through Piero Hincapie<\/a> just after the half-hour mark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Very upset, given a hard time. \u200cThey are fuming, but this <\/strong>\u2060<\/strong>is good. That’s \u200cwhat we need,”<\/strong> Arteta told reporters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“There are things to \u200bimprove obviously, some positives to take from the game and then a \u200bbad result sometimes it’s good to create even more fire in the belly.”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arsenal were without \u2060several key \u200bplayers including Declan Rice<\/a>, Bukayo Saka<\/a>, Eberechi Eze<\/a> and Noni Madueke<\/a>, while Martin Odegaard<\/a> has only recently resumed individual training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Premier League champions \u200cfielded a strong line-up, however, with Viktor Gyokeres<\/a>, Kai Havertz<\/a> and new signing Christos Tzolis<\/a> all starting the match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Midfielder Louie Copley<\/a> suffered a knee injury shortly after coming on as a substitute and Arteta was concerned the 19-year-old may have sustained serious damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Quite worried to be fair for the kid \u200cbecause the mechanism doesn’t look very positive \u200band the symptoms that he already has,”<\/strong> \u200cthe manager said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“So we are going to have to wait and see for tomorrow’s scan. Touch wood that is not a bad one.”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arsenal begin their Premier League \u2060campaign against Coventry \u2060City<\/a> on August \u200c21<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
