Arsenal midfielder Havertz: Goals take your confidence sky high

Arsenal midfielder Kai Havertz admits his confidence is sky high at the moment.

The German scored late in their contest against Brighton and Hove Albion to give them a 2-0 lead.

Havertz, who struggled early on this season after arriving from Chelsea, is now a key player for the Gunners.

“Your confidence always goes high when you score and contribute," he stated post-game.

“That's the same with me, I'm happy and now it's about being consistent with it, regularly week-by-week, and trying to keep that form going.

“It was a tough game [against] a good team, I think we should have scored some goals in the first half, but we talked about some things at half-time and made it a bit better.

“We always do some adjustments of course, but he said we need to keep on going, score a goal and get a good feeling out there. We also started the second half very well, had a couple of chances and sometimes set-pieces are so important, scored from it and sometimes it opens the door in a game. Today it did, and we are all very delighted."
