"I think there was only one team who tried to play football today and therefore I'm proud of how they did it. He added: I will never be that kind of manager who tries to win in that way. I want to do well. I want my players to keep improving, keep playing football on the pitch."
"In the end, of course, every team will manage and waste time, but I think there has to be a limit, and the limit has to be set by the Premier League. The limit has to be set by the referees, at the moment they just do what they want."
Arsenal secured a 1-0 away victory against Brighton through an early deflected goal by Bukayo Saka, though the performance was not considered vintage. The match was marked by tension and bad temper between the teams. Brighton manager Fabian Hurzeler criticized Arsenal's approach in his post-match press conference, stating only his team attempted to play football. Hurzeler expressed frustration with Arsenal's time-wasting tactics and called for the Premier League and referees to establish stricter limits on such behavior. During the match, Hincapie responded dismissively to Hurzeler's criticism with a shushing gesture. The victory proved significant in the title race, as Manchester City unexpectedly dropped points at home to Nottingham Forest.
