Arsenal are in Madrid tonight for the first-leg of their Champions League semifinal.
“Clean sheets were always sacred for goalkeepers and we have seen a team like Arsenal making the difference this year having so many clean sheets and coming all the way,” Seedorf told Amazon Prime.
“If I had to point out one team now that would be capable of bringing it home because of that capacity, it is actually Arsenal.
“From a spectacle point of view, yes it’s great but once upon a time also defending was an art and was appreciated and it has to be apart of the game.
“Tell me one sport you can win without a proper defence? I don’t think it exists.
“Looking at the characteristic of the team, Arsenal is capable of doing this. Atletico Madrid are also capable of doing the things I am saying and they have a good attack eventually.
“Probably less in volume, Arsenal have more difficulty in scoring goals than these two teams but they just need one because they know how to defend a zero eventually and that can make a difference.”
