Arsenal continue their flawless performance in the Premier League. After winning their first three matches, including a prestigious victory against Chelsea (2-1), the Gunners achieved new success on the Sunderland pitch this Saturday evening (0-2). Hanging on for a long time, the Londoners finally made the difference after the break thanks to Bruno Guimarães. The Brazilian broke the deadlock in the 58th minute with a superb shot from outside the area, which landed directly in the top corner.
Mikel Arteta’s men then had to wait for the last seconds to finally take cover. After Reinildo was sent off, Arsenal won a penalty converted by Bukayo Saka in the 96th minute. A victory which above all allows the Gunners to maintain their perfect dynamic since the start of the championship.
Arsenal ahead of Man City
With this fourth success in as many days, Arsenal temporarily takes a three-step lead over Manchester City. The Citizens, however, have one game in hand before their derby against Manchester United on Sunday.
