Arsenal defeat Manchester United, increasing Title race pressure on Manchester City
Arsenal returned to the top of the Premier League with a 1-0 win over Manchester United, keeping title race alive.
Arsenal reclaimed their spot at the top of the Premier League table with a hard-fought victory over Manchester United. The pressure was on the Gunners after Manchester City briefly took the lead with a win over Fulham, but a goal from Leandro Trossard secured a crucial 1-0 win at Old Trafford.
The match was tense and United gave Arsenal a run for their money, with Trossard capitalizing on a defensive error to score the only goal of the game. Despite City's looming game in hand, Arsenal's victory ensures that the title race will go down to the wire.
It was a scrappy game at Old Trafford, with Arsenal struggling to find their rhythm. United's makeshift defense caused problems, but Arsenal's resilience paid off as they held on for the win. United's disappointing season continued with their 14th loss in the Premier League and a record ninth home defeat in all competitions.
The match was a stark contrast to the women's edition at Wembley, where Arsenal secured a comfortable win. The co-owners had different priorities, with Sir Jim Ratcliffe attending the men's match while Avram Glazer watched the women's team in action.
Despite the challenges, Arsenal remained unchanged for the fourth consecutive game and showed determination to secure the win. United put up a fight, but Arsenal's solid defense and Trossard's clinical finish proved to be the difference.
The game was a rollercoaster of emotions, with both teams creating chances but failing to capitalize. United's goalkeeper made some crucial saves to keep them in the game, but Arsenal's composure and control ultimately sealed the victory.
As the final whistle blew, Arsenal fans breathed a sigh of relief as they held on for a vital win. The race for the Premier League title is far from over, but Arsenal's resilience and determination have put them in a strong position as the season draws to a close.
