- We ended our three-game losing streak in fine style with a thrilling win at Stamford Bridge.
Twice we took the lead in the first half - through Eddie Nketiah and Emile Smith Rowe - and twice we were pegged back. But two goals without reply after the break - another from former Chelsea academy striker Nketiah and Bukayo Saka from the penalty spot - were enough to give us a much-needed victory.
Chelsea had had the better of the opening ten minutes. After a flurry of corners Marcos Alonso had a shot deflected just wide. We got enough men back to just about snuff out the chance. Romelu Lukaku then shot wide after a loose pass by Emile Smith Rowe.
Mikel Arteta made three changes to the side that had lost at Southampton at the weekend, with Ben White shifting across to the right and Rob Holding coming in to the centre, and the defence took a while to settle.
But it was a poor pass from the hosts that gave us the chance to open the scoring.
There appeared to be no pressure on Andreas Christensen midway in his own half, but his backpass was woefully underhit, and Nketiah pounced. He took the ball on to the edge of the area, kept his cool and slotted past Edouard Mendy in the Chelsea goal.
It was the striker’s first Premier League goal of the season. But within four minutes it was Nketiah’s turn to give the ball away, and Chelsea levelled.
Timo Werner picked up possession outside the box and though his shot seemed to lack power, a deflection wrong footed Aaron Ramsdale the ball rolled in.
At the other end Nketiah bobbled a shot just wide after wonderful work from Saka just inside the area. The striker’s shot bounced off his other foot and loop the wrong side of the upright.
It was an open game, with plenty of stray passes, and we retook the lead after living dangerously inside our own box. But Granit Xhaka did brilliantly to bring the ball away from danger and launch a counter-attack.
Martin Odegaard took the ball on and rolled it square to Smith Rowe to stroke into the corner precisely from the edge of the box.
Once again though, the lead didn’t last. Cesar Azpilicueta stole in front of Nuno Tavares to turn home a cross in front of goal. It was 2-2 inside half an hour.
Nketiah and Tavares both sent shots wide in immediate response. As the half drew to a close Smith Rowe shot just wide after dancing past three defenders. The keeper was rooted to the spot as the ball flew just the wrong side of the woodwork.
The intensity remained high at the start of the second half, and we took the lead for the third time on the hour mark. Tavares’s cross fell to Nketiah, he looked to have been dispossessed but he showed his striker’s instincts to stab home.
The challenge was to hold the lead this time. Chelsea came back and Alonso had a shot blocked by Gabriel with Ramsdale beaten.
We were getting deeper and deeper as Arteta brought on Cedric as an extra defender. The full back broke free on the right but his pulled back cross was behind Saka. Tavares smashed his chance wide.
We continued to soak up the pressure before sealing the points late on. Saka was hauled down in the box by Azpilicueta, and stepped up himself to thump in goal number four.
Four goals, three points, and the race for the top four is very much alive again.

Arsenal Football Club were formed in 1886 and amassed 13 League titles, 14 FA Cups. Some of their greatest players include: Thierry Henry, Dennis Bergkamp, Tony Adams, Ian Wright, Robert Pires, Liam Brady, Patrick Vieira, Cliff Bastin and Charlie George. - Sport
Arsenal losing to CP, Brighton and Southampton consecutively then demolishing Chelsea at Stamford Bridge is one of the most Arsenal things that can happen
When we lose 3 games in the row actually we are not under pressure anymore and play to our best possible football way cause we have accepted reality. Sometimes under pressure is the one that may take away our confidence and be the hindrance to our way.
Man u next. No under estimating them
Losing against relegation teams, winning against champions of europe + the world, what the heck is this?
@@giovannopho Arsenal
That really is just Arsenal for you. Little sense. Arsenal, the Gensokyo of English football. There is no logic with the Gunners form and there doesn't need to be.
For what Saka went through at the Euros, That penalty nearly made me cry. This kid is beyond special
Our Hale End kids I love them beyond words
Agreed 👍
Also a great trick to get the penalty. Holding Azpilicueta's hand.
shush
Saka after the Euros has gone and produced his best season in an Arsenal shirt, Rashford is having his worst in a United shirt. Bukayo Saka has the right people around him❤
I'm was surprised that Eddie Nketiah scoring a brace against Chelsea and he didn't disappoint me at all. Congratulations to the young man!

Although Laca is ready to leave, he has always been a loyal supporter of the club.
Looks wonderful

As a CIty fan i'm really impressed with the progress of Arsenal under Arteta.
true the process
From defence to attack, Granit Xhaka was the MOTM for me.
That run from defence that led to our 2nd goal was perfection🔥
Yess!! That is something to watch!!
@@alvinfoo10
That nutmeg on Alonzo too. It was brave, but stupid at the same time.
I love it though. Don't know where all this confidence came from
That defensive error for first goal 🤭
@@ahmedyafai1 still better than Maguire tho. Sit back down
XHAKA AND ELNENY WAS ON BEAST MOOD TODAY..THEY RUN THE WHOLE SHOW
Boss the defensive midfield together!
@@angriyanto was so happy!
One thing about Xhaka he give his all in the field..
today?
Lol a mistake
Probably our midfield is fixed till the end of the season. Elbeny had to play on previous games also, he has big experience and always plays on good level. Lokonga needs to gain the meet
Nketiah's hard press and push and composure is what the entire team needs. There's always some sort of reluctance
I keep coming back to watch this I'll never forget when Eddie scored that first goal damn
Arsenal scored 4 again against Chelsea in pre season
@@aa6eheia156 great result and hopefully they can keep that momentum going into the new season!
Granit Xhaka, you deserve respect ❤️🙏
Poor performance from him actually.
@@ymnulh1495 did you watch the match? He was pretty decent
@@ymnulh1495 You didn't watch the game
@@gasdd71 I watched attentively actually.
@@ymnulh1495 well you don’t understand football then if ur saying Xhaka did bad. How was he bad? He played well.
What amazes me is Martin Odegard's unsung contribution. His positioning to receive the Xhaka pass then moving near the Chelsea box to receive Saka's pass before assisting Smith Rowe was class.
I second that, amazing player
Martin Odegard reminds me of Gilberto Silva - unsung Invincible of 2003/4 team. Nobody saw him when he played but he was the one who you missed the most when he didn't. Bergkamp too was a master in midfield.
The captain's armband also fits him so, so well. It looks like it does not want to come out of his arm for the upcoming yeara.
See how MO celebrated that goal. Pure satisfaction.
Haha😹
Xhaka and Tavares 🔥🔥
Glad to see Elneny back and playing with confidence.. thanks for that hope to see you in pitch more in coming days.
Nketiah looks so sharp, he looks very hungry for goal..
that 2nd goal by nketiah was so funny 😂
The power of the ball after that penalty kick by Saka 🚀
Used all the anger from the euros to bring home the 3 points for the gunners
Why didn't he do that at the Euros tough ?
@@MT-eo6tq idk ask him
@@MT-eo6tq Probably because it was his first ever career penalty in the most tense situation, should never of taken it
@@igotbannedk no one's first pen should be that
A crucial block and a goal line clearance by Gabriel as well 👏 brilliant performance
It really was1 I didn't notice his contributions during the game but these highlights show how brilliant he was! Gabriel is hopefully back after a weird spell since he became a dad.
that second Nketiah goal so good holy easily MVP.
I'm shocked...I love watching Arsenal beat Chelsea. This is the best match of the Gunners this season! Super! Keep it up!🔥💥
Yes I love watching Arsenal play UCL
Just look at Lacazette when the 3rd goal went in.
The unity in this team ❤
Kidding? He’s on his way out when the next flight away from London is announced come end of the season.
@@briantung2145 Even if he's on his way out, he's still showing his love and support towards his teammates.
@@Toxicblackmambahs
Great performance, elneny played so well , few mistakes but he was impressive, we needed this win . another one on Saturday please . COYG❤️❤️
next tomiyasu！！！！！
I loved Elneny's composure. He doesnt do anything fancy and keeps his passes simple. Partey tends to play risky passes and loses the ball many times. I just hope things work nicely for Arsenal going forward
On this Saturday, we flogged ManU 3-1. Big win for Arsenal.
2:00 That Odegaard reaction🔥😎
Brilliant ! I hope Arteta continues to start Eddie Nketiah. Elneny, Xhaka and Odegaarde were fantastic in midfield and I was so pleased to see Saka score that penalty ! I think Arteta got the team selection and tactics perfect. Let's hope they play like this against M.U on Saturday !
That nutmeg by Xhaka gave me Cazorla flashbacks!
Yeah, but cazorla moves faster, dribble quicker. We need someone as tall as xhaka but with the quality of cazorla 🤩🤩.
Mhen!! I rewinded it, it was spectacular
Massive win to reignite out top 4 hopes, get behind the team and let's beat United on Saturday COYG !!!
We got this brother! COYG!!!!!
Though I Am Arsenal Fan But Impossible To Beat Manchester United.
No chance mate we gonna thrash you guys
@@rayyan2242 we will see then xx😈
@@rayyan2242 keep dreaming lmao
Finally starts for ESR and Nketiah. Both showed what we've been missing, the ability to put the ball in the back of the net. Shoutouts too for Zhaka and Elneny. Tho' the defence was downright flaky.
Perfect match for arsenal incredible score from Smith.This team teaches us to never give up.Nice job arteta
2:01
Ødy was literally screaming “We DID IT !!”
Chelsea and Arsenal never let you down!
London is red, and always is !
London is red when arsenal only celebrate matches while Chelsea celebrate European cups 😂 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@mosesrodgers5964 congratulations to you!
At least London has history of Champion League winner
Elneny is our unsung hero 🙌....
Imagine not playing for months then putting up magnificent performance against big team. Serious clutch.
Elneny is a seriously underrated player.
Always puts shift in, and runs his heart out.
Fact, he never get rusty,
Played in the league. Remember that he was at the AFCON in January and played to the final
I’d love to see him right-back instead of Cedric. What a clown he is, with his blind set pieces.
4:06 That cheeky backpass to holding almost gave me heart attack 😅
Guy turned into Andreas Neniesta last night
Saka is never missing a penalty again, ever!
My god, this amazing 2 goal is the real goal of the season. ESR is the best finisher of this team. He mastered the mastery
Nketiah might have put Laca on the bench for the rest of the season if he continues to answer calls like he did last night. Happy for Saka's first successful senior penalty especially after the heartbreaking miss at the Euros. 💪🏾❤️
Saka really needed that penalty, after all the abuse after Euro.
And Odegaard really needed that win. First win as captain 🔥
He sure got it by dirty play

It's time Arsenal, small teams been beating us,but we prevailed over Chelsea, great win Arsenal.I always been an Arsenal fan for years, never changed, die hard fan
Great team performance from the lads!👏🏼
They showed up big time. Arteta's masterclass selection, a bold one.
Xhaka-Elneny did the job brilliantly. Eddie was there when needed, clinical.📞
There were and will be bumps on the road, so stick up for them until the end of the season.
We lose and win as a team! 🔴❤️
P.S. Bench Cam is still around, aight? 😄
One of the few times a back 3 formation worked
Great to see Eddie getting some goals. He has some bite about him, just needs game time and confidence and hopefully he flourishes
I’d rather see him do that on another loan deal where he can get guaranteed playtime. Too much of a risk to play him week in & out atm
Love that second goal, from hands on your heads and mouth to jubilation in a flash, it's dope.
Gabriel's effort at the back is not spoken about enough tbh.
Our most entertaining game of the season so far, what a performance!
COYG!!! ❤️❤️❤️
No defense just vibes 😁

Exactly... Look at his movement when xhaka got the ball..
XHAKA was unreal and odegrad too 👀🌌
Ah yes our future captain, marnit odegrad 😆
Get goosebumps every time I watch the second arsenal goal. The way they work hard to win back the lost ball, granits nutmeg and Smith rowes cool finish! We were spoiled with a great match yesterday 🙌

I’m rooting for the Gunners to get top 4, what a season you’ve had. Don’t think anyone expected it at the beginning of the season and even less after that dreadful start. Imagine if you had sacked Arteta then
Let's hope they can win the last six games.
considering Liverpool will beat Spurs at Home, Arsenal could secure the top 4, the only thing stopping them from finishing top 4 are themselves

Imagine if we beat United and Spurs lose to Brentford. I expect a lose to Liverpool too.
Then all we have to do is match Spurs results in the rest of the matches.
We are back this Sunday against Chelsea and looking at Arsenal as a team we are stronger compared to last year but we need to score goals , Jesus should get a couple this game
Good high press from Nketiah, I love watching these young folks, I love what Mikel is doing with the boys!❤️
People need to respect Nketiah
a lot of fans been saying he's not good enough
he proved himself this game
For me the best thing we learned from this game is that Elneny has to start till the end of the season. Sick performance. Also Lokonga isn't ready yet for Arsenal.
M.Ø contribution to the team is just immense.That kid is a gem🤩💖
I want the repeat of this glorious moment on Sunday
1-0 to the arsenal
Can't remember the last time we were blessed with 5min highlights. Long may it continue !!!
Man that nketiah first goal celebration was the best 👍 🤣
I love that the second goal got started with Xhaka nutmegging the drunk driving murderer Alonso. Great stuff
Those kids in attack are a trouble for any opponent. The champions is my obsession. Greetings from Peru!
That second Arsenal goal was a thing of beauty. Granit Xavi played the team out of trouble magnificently and then that finish by ESR. wow.
Granit Xavi
🤣😂🤣😂
I love this match. If we can play like this for remaining matches, we can beat spurs and go to champs!! COYG COYG
Let's just hope the remaining teams give us free goals the way Chelsea did🙂

Arsenal will always be my team no matter what
Arsenal's pressing quality made it difficult for the opponents. Midfield compactness was also excellent. Eddie's workrate allowed Arsenal to get forward.
Delusional fam. 2 goals are horrendous defensive errors from 2 underperforming youths ( christ and sarr) while the penal on saka is a fkn DISGRACE
@@samiouldzeine8076 clueless
More of Elneny.
I pray they don't disappoint on sat
Smith-Rowe is so intelligent. His movement is top-notch.
Just can’t stop watching this highlights. Jus the best.😭😭
Loved how laca celebrated with Eddie after he scored his second goal❤
Love the passion after the saka pen…… look what it means to all of us ❤
Nketiah is a rare breed today, a true predator who acts on instinct for his position and actions. I wonder if he can keep this quality as he develops, with the modern game being so controlled and unspontaneous.
That Saka penalty gave me World Cup flashbacks.
Finally, Highlights we actually want to watch! Brilliant job by the lads, Nketiah showing Chelsea what they missed out on, Saka with an ice cold pen and Esr finishing another goal that shows just how great this young team can be. We can’t keep this as our trophy for this season, On we go back to the Emirates to give us another edge in the top four race gainst United.
Chelsea miss UCL
Ngl xhaka,elneny and Rob holding was immense and also love the passion from the team COYG♥️♥️🔴⚪
Came back after the latest win. Miss ESR! This was a magical night
Don’t ever forget that, Tavares, lakonga, eleny, and nketia started this game 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Elneny & Nketiah were immense last night. Xhaka also capped off a fine performance. COYG!!!
Xhakas defensive positioning and awareness on our second goal counter was insanely good , then to slip it past the first man and casually nutmeg the 2nd man and play out a calm ball to the correct man was actually class , fair play , not his biggest fan either
No one is talking of Tavares's pass to Nketiah at 3:15. It was magnificent
That was dope
No one in any case for a long time gives Xhaka credits... He's class player who continuing to love this club even he is the most critisising player
Granit nutmeg in the arsenal box🤯 and lead to goal for arsenal. I luv how arsenal are so calm inside the box when opponent attacking
There’s no arsenal without xhaka ....man always gives his all ❤, even though we won arteta playing sambi over elneny in the last three matches is just silly....I understand he hates Pepe but that’s his business,for me pepe will always be in my heart cos he is special
He doesn't hate Pepe. He is frustrated with him many times. As are most of us
He came on and gave away a stupid freekick in almost the last second against Villa, which they nearly scored from.
That's frustrating
He doesn't hate Pepe. Pepe has been given chance after chance after chance, yet he failed to prove himself. Sometimes, he appears nervy. Or maybe, it's the critics. Maybe that price tag was too heavy on his shoulders. I don't want us to sell him coz I see a lot of potentials in him. He has two years left on his contract. Arsenal's only fear is him going a a free.
@@rayanderson1941 Mehn he hates Pepe it’s so clear and the reason it’s because he didn’t buy him....trust me if arteta had bought him he would play him regardless...playing lokonga in our three previous loss matches proved that....like I would have preferred Ben white as cdm and holding at the back in that last three matches even if he didn’t want to play elneny there still other options....I just hope he ego won’t bring him down bcos I believe arteta as a coach understand the game and isn’t afraid to make changes in formations unlike ole Gunnar...the only time we are going to see the best arteta as a coach is if arsenal makes top 4 and he offloads the players he doesn’t like including Pepe which would hurt me personally because Pepe has potential he just needs a coach that believes in him and guide him but sometimes in life you just have to move on... so let’s see what the future holds though
@@thegazahimself The last time Pepe started a game was October
Top 4 in our hands 🔴👏💪
Nketiah his footballs from another world......all my gunners wish u all the best
I know Nketiah really rose up to the occasion but let's wait and see how he fairs till the end of the season.
Also for Saka to step up for the penalty, absolutely amazing given what happened at the Euros.
A great day for arsenal🎌nketiah,xhaka,elneny worked tirelessly to reignite our hopes of top four...London is red🔴⚪🏆
