"We've seen where Arsenal has finished in the season over the past few years, so they are a very good team," Struijk said.

He felt that Leeds played well and solidly until they conceded a goal at a set-piece around the 35th minute. Struijk acknowledged that Arsenal is skilled at set-pieces.

Leeds went into halftime with a two-goal deficit, which Struijk believed changed the momentum of the game.

He accepted that it would be a challenging task for Leeds to win at Arsenal, who is competing for the title.

Struijk emphasized the importance of not dwelling on the loss, as the team has a quick turnaround for their next match.
