An early goal gives the advantage

Brighton’s attempts were unsuccessful

Brighton tried to respond quickly, and almost equalized through a Diego Gomez header and a powerful shot from Jorginho Rutter, but their efforts lacked precision and a final touch. The pressure continued in the second half without posing a real threat to David Raya’s goal.

Resist until the end

In the final minutes, Kai Havertz missed a chance to extend the lead after his shot was saved by the Brighton goalkeeper, before the seven minutes of added time passed amidst crowd tension, and the match ended with a Gunners victory.

The two teams’ positions in the standings

With this victory, Arsenal raised its tally to 67 points at the top of the standings, widening the gap to 7 points over second-placed Manchester City with 60 points, as it continues to fly steadily towards the dream of winning the title.
