A High-Stakes Contest For Arsenal
Arsenal were wary of Fulham. It was going to be a tricky contest, and with so much at stake, the Gunners had to be at their best as Fulham visited the Emirates Stadium last evening, in an interesting London Derby.
Bukayo Saka Fortifies The Gunners
With a Bukayo Saka-fortified Arsenal, the team looked different from the outset. The brilliance of Saka, who had been struggling with injuries the whole season, was palpable as Fulham felt the difference with a fit Saka on the prowl.
Saka’s Brilliance And Arsenal Take Lead
Gyökeres, who has been in some phenomenal form, opened the scoring in the 9th minute with a sensational piece of play by Bukayo Saka, who dribbled the ball from the right flank, got rid of the defender and then turned in an inch-perfect curling cross, which Gyökeres just tapped into the net. It was the first of the three brilliant goals from the Gunners.
Saka Scores With A Fine Gyökeres Assist
The duo of Gyökeres and Saka combined once again to give Arsenal a 2-0 lead. The Swede just returned the favour, with slick play from the right and passed over to an arriving Saka, who did the rest. The finish was sublime and composed.
Gyökeres Nets A Brace
Just a few minutes later, at the stroke of half-time, Trossard made a fine move from the left and centred to a waiting Gyökeres, who headed home Arsenal’s third goal of the day.
An incredible First Half
It was an incredible first half from the Gunners, who were imperious to say the least.
Fulham Completely Outplayed
Fulham were completely outplayed by a free-flowing sublime Arsenal. The visitors hardly had an opportunity to score with David Raya cooling his heels right through the match.
Arsenal Seal The Match Emphatically
After an invigorating first half, Arsenal played it safe and ensured an emphatic 3-0 win, which not only gave them a 6-point lead over Manchester City but also improved the goal difference, which eventually might decide the winner of the EPL.
Saka’s Presence Vital For Arsenal’s Progress
Bukayo Saka’s presence just lifted Arsenal to another level, which augurs well for the Gunners going into the final chapter of the EPL title race and the Champions League.
Manchester City might just be feeling the heat. They take the field tomorrow.
