Wale busari01 mins

The second half of the Champions League showdown between Arsenal and Bayern Munich belonged entirely to the Gunners. Unlike the first half, Arsenal returned from the break with increased intensity and a clear attacking intent. Mikel Arteta made decisive moves in the closing stages, introducing Riccardo Calafiori, who immediately provided a brilliant assist for fellow substitute Madueke to score. Shortly after, Gabriel Martinelli was also brought on, and he made an instant impact, scoring to make it 3-1. Following a Bayern corner, Arsenal launched a swift counterattack. Manuel Neuer misjudged a long ball played to Martinelli well outside his goal, leaving the Brazilian with a simple finish into an open net. Bayern now appear set to suffer their first defeat in 18 competitive matches this season.

Wale busari02 mins

Eberechi Eze announced himself in spectacular fashion in his first North London Derby, scoring a sensational hat-trick as Arsenal thrashed Tottenham Hotspur 4-1 at the Emirates Stadium, stretching their Premier League lead to six points. Fourteen years after being released by Arsenal as a youngster, Eze’s performance was a full-circle moment, dominating a game that had fans buzzing from start to finish. Tottenham manager Thomas Frank opted for a back five, aiming to frustrate Arsenal with a defensive setup. While the strategy initially slowed the hosts, two clinical goals before halftime changed the complexion of the match. Leandro Trossard opened the scoring in the 36th minute with a beautifully weighted finish, followed five minutes later by Eze’s first goal. Eze struck again within the first minute of the second half, curling a left-footed finish into the net to make it 3-0. Tottenham briefly fought back when Richarlison scored a stunning long-range strike, but it was always Eze’s day. He completed his hat-trick in the 76th minute, leaving defenders flat-footed and capping a historic performance. The 27-year-old became the first player to net a North London Derby hat-trick since Alan Sunderland in 1978, showcasing the talent and flair that once had him describing Kevin De Bruyne as his toughest opponent. On this afternoon, Eze proved he can produce magic on the biggest stage.

Brian Brobbey’s Late Goal Secures Dramatic 2-2 Draw Between Sunderland and Arsenal

Wale busari02 mins

Brian Brobbey’s stoppage-time goal salvaged a dramatic 2-2 draw for Sunderland against Premier League leaders Arsenal at the Stadium of Light. Sunderland had taken an early lead through Daniel Ballard, who capitalized on a free-kick from Robin Roefs to head past David Raya, ending Arsenal’s remarkable 812-minute run without conceding. The goal highlighted Sunderland’s status as one of the surprise packages of the season and sent the home crowd into raptures. Arsenal responded in the second half, showing the composure expected of title contenders. Declan Rice intercepted a loose touch from Enzo Le Fee and played the ball to Bukayo Saka, who fired past Roefs to level the score. Martin Zubimendi then struck the crossbar, while Leandro Trossard appeared to secure the lead with a thunderous shot from outside the area that rippled the net. However, Brobbey had other ideas. In the 94th minute, he pounced to fire home and snatch a point for Regis Le Bris’ side. Sunderland also had a near miss at the other end, with Ballard making a crucial challenge to deny Mikel Merino a potential winner. The result maintains Arsenal’s seven-point lead at the top of the Premier League but sees Sunderland rise to third, setting up an exciting showdown ahead of Manchester City’s clash with Liverpool on Super Sunday.

Arsenal’s Max Dowman Breaks Record As Youngest Player In Champions League History At 15

Wale busari01 mins

Arsenal’s rising star Max Dowman etched his name into football history on Tuesday night, becoming the youngest player ever to appear in the UEFA Champions League. At just 15 years and 309 days old, the teenage midfielder came on as a 73rd-minute substitute in Arsenal’s 3–0 win over Slavia Prague, marking a record-breaking moment for both himself and the club. Dowman shattered the previous record set by German striker Youssoufa Moukoko, who made his debut for Borussia Dortmund in 2020 at 16 years and 18 days. Moukoko, now with FC Copenhagen, was preparing to face Tottenham Hotspur later that evening. The achievement caps off a whirlwind week for Dowman, who had already become Arsenal’s youngest-ever starter in their 2–0 League Cup victory over Brighton — proof of manager Mikel Arteta’s growing faith in the teenager’s extraordinary potential.

Wale busari02 mins

Arsenal continued their perfect run in the UEFA Champions League with a 3–0 victory over Slavia Prague on Tuesday night, securing their fourth straight win and matching a 121-year-old club record of eight consecutive clean sheets. Bukayo Saka opened the scoring from the penalty spot after a handball in the box, calmly sending the goalkeeper the wrong way. The goal marked his fourth straight Champions League game on the scoresheet, bringing his total to 12 goals in 20 starts in the competition. After the break, Mikel Merino took charge, volleying in Leandro Trossard’s cross to double Arsenal’s lead before heading home a third midway through the second half after a mix-up from Slavia’s goalkeeper, Jakub Markovic. With the result sealed, manager Mikel Arteta brought on several youngsters, including 15-year-old Max Dowman, who made history as the youngest player ever to appear in the Champions League at 15 years and 308 days old. Arsenal’s defence remained solid, surviving a late VAR review to keep another clean sheet — their eighth in a row, equalling a record that has stood since 1903. The Gunners now shift focus to domestic duty as they visit Sunderland on Saturday before facing Bayern Munich after the international break.

Wale busari02 mins

Arsenal extended their Premier League lead with a convincing 2-0 victory over Burnley at Turf Moor on Saturday, thanks to first-half goals from Viktor Gyokeres and Declan Rice. Mikel Arteta’s side took control early on when Gyokeres rose highest to head home his fourth league goal of the season from a superbly executed set piece, giving the Gunners a deserved lead. Declan Rice, heavily involved in the opener, doubled Arsenal’s advantage 10 minutes before halftime. The England midfielder finished off a swift counterattack with a powerful header that left the Burnley goalkeeper with no chance. The second half saw fewer chances as Arsenal managed the game with composure, limiting Burnley’s attacking opportunities. The hosts came close late on, striking the woodwork in stoppage time, but never truly threatened to turn the tide. The result marked Arsenal’s fifth consecutive league win, keeping them seven points clear at the top of the table. Burnley, meanwhile, remain in 17th place, just four points above the relegation zone.

Eze Fires Arsenal To 1–0 Victory Over Crystal Palace As Gunners Go Four Points Clear

Wale busari03 mins

Arsenal edged Crystal Palace 1–0 at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday, October 26, 2025, in a hard-fought Premier League encounter that tested their patience and composure. The decisive moment came in the 39th minute when Eberechi Eze, facing his former club, struck a composed volley into the bottom-right corner after a well-delivered free-kick routine. Declan Rice’s curling cross was nodded down by Gabriel Magalhães, allowing Eze to pounce and give Arsenal the breakthrough they had been pushing for all half. Before the goal, Arsenal had dominated possession but struggled to find a cutting edge against Palace’s deep defensive setup. The Emirates crowd erupted when Eze’s finish found the net, giving the hosts the momentum heading into halftime. The second half saw Crystal Palace attempt to claw their way back into the game, but Arsenal’s backline — marshaled by William Saliba and Gabriel — stood firm. Palace’s best chance came from a swift counterattack, but goalkeeper David Raya reacted sharply to keep his clean sheet intact. Bukayo Saka nearly doubled Arsenal’s lead late on, only for Marc Guehi to clear his effort off the line in one of the game’s most dramatic moments. Despite pressing for a second goal, Arsenal had to settle for the lone strike that proved enough to seal the win. The victory extended Arsenal’s unbeaten run in the Premier League to six matches and ten in all competitions, moving them four points clear at the top of the table. For Eze, the night carried special significance as he scored against the club where he made his name. His goal — his first in Arsenal colors — underscored the growing influence he’s beginning to have under Mikel Arteta. While the Gunners’ attacking fluency still lacked its usual sharpness, their defensive solidity and control once again showed why they’re serious title contenders this season.
