New Arsenal captain Odegaard hails performance for victory over Sevilla

New Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard hailed their performance for victory over Sevilla.

Odegaard led the Gunners to a 6-0 win today, so lifting the Emirates Cup.

He later said: "Yeah, it was a great one.

"I think from the start we were really switched on. We want to get a good feeling before the league starts so I think we did well and it was nice to play in front of the fans again here at the Emirates, so it was a nice day.

"I think the confidence is obviously high. We've had some good games, we've beaten two good teams now lately, and we're playing well, so of course we have a good feeling but we have to stay calm, we have to stay humble, and keep working hard. We know it's not going to be easy so we have to keep working hard and always be on our toes. That's what it's all about, to push everyday."
