Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard says there's 'no hope' in title race after loss to Brighton

While mathematically it's not yet confirmed, the faces of the Arsenal players at the end of their 3-0 defeat to Brighton on Saturday made it clear they knew the Premier League title race was over.

Some stood staring into the distance, others sat on the pitch and looked at the ground as their opponents raced over to the away end to celebrate with their jubilant fans.

This game felt like the last chance saloon for Arsenal. They still needed the unlikely scenario of Manchester City slipping up in their remaining three games but a win was a must if they were to stay in the hunt.
