Declan Rice Remains Determined in Arsenal's Title Pursuit: "There's Still Much to Play For"

Declan Rice, Arsenal's dynamic midfielder, remains resolute in the team's pursuit of the Premier League title despite recent challenges.

Following a 1-1 draw against Manchester United at Old Trafford, which left Arsenal 15 points adrift of leaders Liverpool, Rice emphasized the importance of perseverance. 

He acknowledged Liverpool's impressive form but insisted, "It's not over yet. We need to keep pushing, we're Arsenal." Rice's commitment underscores the team's determination to continue their fight until the season's end.

In the match, Bruno Fernandes gave United the lead with a free-kick just before halftime. Arsenal equalized in the second half through a spectacular strike by Rice. Despite efforts from both teams to find a winner, including a notable save by David Raya and a missed opportunity by Gabriel Martinelli, neither side prevailed. This result keeps Arsenal's title hopes faint as they drop crucial points, while Manchester United remains in a relegation-threatened position. 

Manager Mikel Arteta expressed frustration over the missed opportunity, stating, "We had some unbelievable situations but we didn't get the last shot or the last pass... We opened the gate to lose the game." 

Looking ahead, Rice remains optimistic, emphasizing that Arsenal will "give everything until the end of the season." He added, "There's still much to play for."
