This is the big surprise of the day. This Saturday, Arsenal lost on their home pitch against Bournemouth with a score of 2 goals to 1.
It’s the surprise of the day in the Premier League. This Saturday afternoon, at the Emirates Stadium, Arsenal conceded a defeat against Bournemouth with a score of 2 goals to 1, for the 32nd day of the championship.
A setback which comes at the worst time for the Gunners, who will travel to Manchester City the next day. This Sunday, the Citizens could return to six points if they manage to win against Chelsea (the Mancunians still have a game in hand).
Bournemouth climatise l’Emirates
It’s a day to forget for Arsenal. Victorious this week in the Champions League on the pitch of Sporting Portugal, the London club aimed to continue in order to tackle next week which promises to be decisive, both in Europe and nationally.
Uninspired, Mikel Arteta’s men were quickly surprised at the start of the match following a goal from Frenchman Eli-Junior Kroupi (1-0, 17th). Despite this opening score, the Londoners remained in the match and reacted thanks to a penalty converted at the end of the first period by Viktor Gyökeres (1-1, 35th).
However, upon returning from the locker room, the Cherries hurt the Gunners again in the game. Alex Scott perfectly concludes a nice collective movement on the right side with his right foot (2-1, 74th). Thanks to this victory, Bournemouth temporarily climbs to 9th place in the ranking.
From now on, the Gunners remain within reach of the Citizens and will absolutely have to get their act together so as not to miss out on a title that has been reaching out to them for several weeks…
