SPORT : Arsenal vs Man City, Arteta gives injury updates ahead of Carabao Cup

 


Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta, has confirmed that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will miss their Carabao Cup quarter-final against Manchester City with a calf injury.

Aubameyang missed the Gunners’ 2-1 defeat at Everton on Saturday.

The result left them in 15th place in the Premier League, just four points above the relegation zone.

The game against City is a chance for Arsenal to forget about their miserable league form and focus on reaching a cup semi-final.

But they would have to achieve that without their captain.

Arteta told the media today: “Auba is not fit for tomorrow, that’s for sure. [He] is feeling much better. He was more positive yesterday (Sunday) than in the previous two days. He will have another scan in the next few days and we will see how quickly we can get him back in the team.

“He knows how important he is for us, he feels the responsibility and he is trying his best to be fit as quickly as possible.”

Arteta has already won the FA Cup and Community Shield since becoming the manager 12 months ago.

Nnamdi Kanu Sends Important Message To IPOB Members From Detention

IPOB: The Nigerian Civil War, commonly known as the Biafran War

  THE HISTORY OF BIAFRA AND NIGERIA WAR  Israel, Nigeria and the Biafra civil war    The Nigerian Civil War , commonly known as the Biafran War (6 July 1967 – 15 January 1970), was a war fought between the government of Nigeria and the secessionist state of Biafra. Biafra represented nationalist aspirations of the Igbo people, whose leadership felt they could no longer coexist with the Northern-dominated federal government. The conflict resulted from political, economic, ethnic, cultural and religious tensions which preceded Britain's formal decolonization of Nigeria from 1960 to 1963. Immediate causes of the war in 1966 included a military coup, a counter-coup and persecution of Igbo living in Northern Nigeria. Control over the lucrative oil production in the Niger Delta played a vital strategic role. Within a year, the Federal Government troops surrounded Biafra, capturing coastal oil facilities and the city of Port Harcourt. The blockade imp...
