Arsenal survived a rollercoaster at Bournemouth to win 3–2, stretching their winning run to seven matches. The game swung wildly between chaos and control before a second-half brace from Declan Rice settled the contest.
Gabriel gifted Bournemouth an early opener but redeemed himself soon after with a powerful equaliser. Martin Ødegaard and Bukayo Saka played key roles in the second-half build-up to Rice’s goals, while Junior Kroupi’s long-range strike made for a nervy finish.
Arsenal held on with composed game management to take the points. The win keeps them top as they head into a busy spell — Liverpool at the Emirates, an FA Cup trip to Portsmouth, and a Carabao Cup semi against Chelsea.
