The London club defeated the opponent in the middle match of the 37th round of the English football championship.
Arsenal continue to battle with Manchester City for the English Premier League title. The previous day, the Londoners beat Manchester United and once again lead the championship standings.
Let’s remember that before the match the Gunners had a sad statistic: in the last 16 matches at Old Trafford they won only once. But on this day they were able to defeat their enemy.
The fate of the match was decided by a single goal scored by the guests. In the 20th minute, Kai Havertz, avoiding offside, ran into the penalty area and crossed to Leandro Trossard, who successfully completed the pass.
After this match, Arsenal is one point ahead of Manchester City in the standings, but the “citizens” have a fight in hand.
Manchester United remain eighth, three points behind Newcastle and Chelsea, who both have 57 points.
