Arteta impressed by Gabriel Jesus as Arsenal defeat Sevilla<\/h3>\n

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta appeared to disagree with Gabriel Jesus over the severity of his hamstring injury sustained in the Champions League on Tuesday. The forward scored the all-important goal against Sevilla on the night but a spell on the sidelines could await the No 9.<\/p>\n

Arsenal claimed the top spot in Group B with an impressive away win over their Spanish rivals, capitalising on Lens\u2019 1-1 draw with PSV Eindhoven to take control. Gabriel Martinelli opened the scoring for Arteta\u2019s side on the cusp of half-time, coolly rounding the Sevilla goalkeeper Orhan Nyland and tapping into an empty net following a swift counter-attack.<\/p>\n

Jesus then doubled Arsenal\u2019s lead in the 53rd minute when curling a sensational effort into the top corner, with Nemanja Gudelj halving the deficit moments later when heading home from a corner. There were plenty of positives for Arteta to take away from the performance.<\/p>\n

However, Jesus asking to be substituted in the 81st minute and leaving the pitch clutching his hamstring was also a significant negative for the Spanish boss at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuann Stadium. Speaking about the injury, Arteta explained: \u201cHe felt something in his hamstring.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe straight away asked to be subbed, which is not good news, because he’s not the kind of player who does that. So we’ll have to wait and see in the next few days.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite Arteta\u2019s fears, Jesus revealed to TNT Sports that he did not think that the injury was significant and that he felt that he may not even feel the problem after 24 hours. The ex-Manchester City star said: \u201c’I felt something. Let’s see. I did some tests with the physio, it looks not that big, but let’s see. I have a scan, maybe tomorrow. I’m pretty sure it will be nothing.\u201d<\/p>\n
