With the scoreline at 3-2 in favor of the home team, the tension was palpable as the Gunners sought to salvage a point from the encounter. Arsene Wenger, renowned for his tactical acumen and unwavering determination, had turned to Merida as a late substitute, hoping the young Spaniard could inject some much-needed energy and creativity into Arsenal's faltering attack. Merida, a promising talent who had only recently joined the squad, was eager to make an impact and help his team secure a valuable result.
