Gunners ‘s perfect start to the Premier League season came to an end as Manchester United defeated the Arsenal 3-1
Marcus Rashford scored twice in the second half to humiliate Arsenal,
while Antony also scored a goal.
Made a couple of excellent saves to deny Martinelli twice in the first half. However,
the one goal Arsenal scored all night was mostly his responsibility. didn’t decide quickly enough,
which allowed Saka to shot into the goal.
As Manchester United defeated Arsenal 3-1,
ruining the Gunners’ undefeated start to the Premier League season,
Erik ten Hag brought in new acquisition Antony to play against Arsenal.
Marcus Rashford scored twice in the second half to humiliate Arsenal. The goals were scored by Antony and Rashford.
The Reds’ performance against Arsenal was assessed by UtdDistrict as follows:
Under Ten Hag,
Malacia has been growing successfully. was fairly competent in this game,
but he did hand the ball over to Saka inside the area,
giving the Gunners a chance.
Especially with linkup and long balls,
he did an excellent job assisting his defence. McTominay put forth a fantastic effort tonight and had the opportunity to dispel any sceptics about his selection for the starting XI.
Early in the game,
made a strong run to find Antony’s cross,
but was unable to score. was a little underwhelming for most of the game until he made a great move towards the Arsenal area to find Rashford, who scored United’s third goal.
Arsenal lost 3-1 on Sunday at Old Trafford as a result of their ineffectiveness in both goals and corners.
Early in the game,
the Gunners scored,
but VAR’s forensic review disallowed it. Anthony, a recent addition to Manchester United,
then gave them the lead against the odds.
Saka capitalised on a fumbled pass for Arsenal to tie the score early in the second half. The game was decided by a score of 3-1 after Manchester United,
who posed a threat on the break,
scored two quick goals on the break to pierce the heart of Arsenal.
Perhaps a new star striker has joined Manchester United? The £85 million Ajax transfer,
Antony, scored on his debut, and even Cristiano Ronaldo
stood to praise his fantastic celebration. But Marcus Rashford was ultimately the reason for this crucial victory.
The game was ultimately about Rashford as United earned their fourth straight Premier League victory. It was also about the deft combination play of Bruno Fernandes and Christian Eriksen,
Arsenal’s wastefulness despite dominating for long stretches,
and the sense of injustice they felt over a VAR call with what would have been the crucial opening goal ruled out. They delivered a message similar to what they did against Liverpool.
Arsenal maintains its lead in the standings,
but this was a sobering shock as their run of five straight victories
to begin the season came to a halt in the biggest game they have yet to play. Although it was a concern for Mikel Arteta, they will hope it is only a slight setback
to motivate them further rather than a reality check.
