FollowArsenal's resilient display in a narrow 1-0 triumph against Manchester United propels them further into the Premier League title race.
Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford were conspicuously absent due to injuries for the hosts, who, once again, saw Erik ten Hag deploy Casemiro in the centre-back position. Rasmus Hojlund missed a golden opportunity early on, skying his attempt after being set up by an interception from Scott McTominay. However, the deadlock was eventually broken by Arsenal in the 21st minute, as Leandro Trossard capitalized on Kai Havertz’s pass from the right side.
In the second half, Manchester United regained momentum, with Alejandro Garnacho's shot narrowly missing the target, grazing the side netting of David Raya’s goal. Substitute Gabriel Martinelli swiftly responded for Mikel Arteta’s side with a close-range strike, expertly saved by Andre Onana with a one-handed effort. Arsenal climbed one point ahead of Manchester City in the standings, with the latter having the opportunity to reclaim the lead in their upcoming match against Tottenham on Tuesday.
