Arsenal 2-0 Luton Town
Buts : Ødegaard (24th) & Hashioka (44th, CSC)
Arsenal restarts the machine.
Held in check by City on Sunday after eight consecutive victories in the Premier League, the Gunners moved forward again this Wednesday, against Luton Town, at the start of the final sprint across the Channel. Faced with a team that no longer knows how to win a football match (10 games without a victory), Arsenal did not have to force its talent. At the end of a one-sided first period (12 shots, 4 on target versus 2 shots, 1 on target), Arteta’s men had already folded the matter.
After a high recovery from the returning Emile Smith-Rowe, Martin Ødegaard and Kaï Havertz played against the Luton defense, before the Norwegian shot Thomas Kaminski (1-0, 24th). Emile Smith-Rowe (again) then pushed Daiki Hashioka to make a mistake on a cross towards Reiss Nelson, diverted into the back of his net by the Japanese defender (2-0, 44th). Enough to spend a quiet second act, and temporarily regain the throne of the Premier League, one point ahead of Manchester City and especially Liverpool, who host Sheffield United on Thursday.
All while leaving Bukayo Saka cool.
