This Saturday, at the end of the afternoon, Arsenal welcomed Bournemouth at the Emirates Stadium as part of the 35th day of the Premier League. After an observation round, the Gunners were the first to open the scoring.
After the half hour of play, Martin Odegaard, found by Thomas Partey, launched Declan Rice in depth. The English midfielder won his duel against Kepa Arrizabalaga of a right foot (1-0, 34th). The first period ended with the Londoners in charge, despite fair possession.
Les Cherries overthrow the Gunners
Invigorated, the men of Andoni Iraola intensified the pressure and ended up overthrowing the game. A quarter of an hour from the term, on a corner struck by Alex Scott, Marcus Tavernier died the ball at the first post. Evanilson, on the lookout, concluded with a shot in the fray after a muscular duel with Odegaard (2-1, 75th).
Arsenal collects his fourth defeat in the league this season, a few days before a crucial trip to the lawn of Paris Saint-Germain, in the semi-final return of the Champions League (1-0 defeat). Bournemouth, for its part, climbs in 8th place, while remaining seven points from the last qualifying place for the C1.
