While some are playing the Champions League play-offs, Arsenal, already qualified for the round of 16 of C1, were playing an advanced match of the 31st day of the Premier League this evening. On paper, the championship leader had a good margin of safety on the soggy lawn of Wolverhampton, bottom red, and already one foot and four toes in the Championship. Saka’s opening score in the 5th confirmed this. Things did not get better for the Wolves with the injury exit of Angel Gomes in the 22nd minute, then the break goal after the break from Hincapié (56th).
The matter seemed to be over but Santi Bueno reduced the score and restarted his team (61st), which made Mikel Arteta’s players doubt until the end of the evening. They even ended up foiling, and were punished by this disagreement between Raya and Gabriel. Edozie took the opportunity to equalize with a powerful shot, despite the presence of Calafiori on the line (90th+4). The leader retains his seat of course with 5 points ahead of Manchester City, but loses two precious points during this surprising 2-2 draw. The drop in form is confirmed and confidence crumbles like the altercation of Gabriel Jesus after the final whistle with Mosquera.
