Kai Havertz & Jurrien Timber make unwanted Premier League history

sky sports 2024/09/23 07:27


Mikel Arteta's men were just minutes away from making their way to the top of the Premier League table as Arsenal led 2-1 against Manchester City well into injury time before John Stones equalised for the Manchester side to keep them atop the table.


Arsenal put on a very backs-to-the-wall performance at the Etihad Stadium to try and get a result against City. However, Havertz and Timber were not able to match the level of the match on the night as both the Arsenal stars ended the game with zero passes completed despite playing more than 89 minutes. As per OptaJoe, this is the first time since the 2003-04 season, that an outfield player has done so in the Premier League.


Havertz attempted a total of five passes and failed to complete all of them on the night, while Timber attempted six passes not to place a single one of them accurately at a teammate.


The Gunners stars will have a perfect opportunity to bounce back to form as Arsenal will be in action next when they take on League One side Bolton in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday, September 25.
