On Sunday, Thomas Partey had a brilliant performance as Arsenal defeated Leeds United 1-0 on the road.
After a tense victory over the Peacocks, Mikel Arteta’s Gunners increased their winning streak in the Premier League to five games. Having been set up by Martin Odegaard in the 35th minute, Bukayo Saka’s goal gave the North Londoners the victory at Elland Road. Four minutes after the hour, Leeds had an opportunity to tie the score again, but Patrick Bamford failed from the spot-kick. Jesse Marsch’s team was given a second penalty in the dying moments of the fiercely contested match, but VAR overturned Chris Kavanagh’s first call. Partey played the entire game to carry on his great streak in the 2022–23 season.
Unquestionably one of the Gunners’ top players; an effective midfield partner of Granit Xhaka. According to the statistics, he made two tackles overall, three interceptions, and one foul. He also had 63 touches, won one aerial, and lost possession twice. With 53 passes and a passing efficiency of 86.8%, he contributed the third-most passes behind William Saliba (88) and Gabriel Magalhaes (60).
