EPL Sh*ckwaves: Arsenal Thrash Rivals As Man United Struggle To Salvage A Point

Published

Viktor Gyökeres opened the scoring in the 14th minute after a brilliant team move, while Declan Rice doubled the lead with a precise finish in the 35th minute — sealing another professional display for Mikel Arteta’s men. The Gunners have now won four consecutive league matches and sit two points clear at the summit.

At the Amex Stadium, Brighton delivered a commanding 3-0 triumph over Leeds United. Danny Welbeck broke the deadlock in the 11th minute before Dani Gómez netted twice in quick succession in the second half (64th and 70th minutes) to round off a dominant home performance for Roberto De Zerbi’s side.

Crystal Palace also impressed with a 2-0 win against Brentford at Selhurst Park. Jean-Philippe Mateta fired the Eagles ahead shortly after the half-hour mark, and their relentless pressure forced an own goal from Nathan Collins early in the second half. The victory lifted Palace into the top half of the table and deepened Brentford’s struggles.

At Craven Cottage, Fulham put on one of their best displays of the season, sweeping past Wolves 3-0. Ryan Sessegnon struck early to give the hosts control, before Harry Wilson extended the lead midway through the second half. Wolves’ misery was compounded when Yerson Mosquera turned the ball into his own net after Emmanuel Agbadou’s red card left the visitors short-handed.

Elsewhere, Manchester United were held to a 2-2 draw by a determined Nottingham Forest side at the City Ground. Casemiro opened the scoring for United in the 34th minute, but Forest quickly turned the game around through Morgan Gibbs-White and Nicolo Savona. Substitute Amad Diallo salvaged a point for Erik ten Hag’s men with a late equaliser in the 81st minute.

After this weekend’s fixtures, Arsenal remain top with 25 points from ten matches, ahead of Bournemouth, Tottenham, and Sunderland. Manchester United sit fifth, while Wolves languish at the bottom, still without a single win this season.
