Kai Havertz’s late, late header was enough to win a scrappy encounter at Brentford and send us to the top of the table.

    In a game of few chances, the German forward came off the bench in the second half to head in Bukayo Saka’s deep cross a couple of minutes before the end.

    We had earlier had a Leandro Trossard goal ruled out for offside after a VAR review, and we cleared two efforts off the line through Declan Rice and Alex Zinchenko. It may not have been pretty, but the three points were warmly received at full-time by the travelling supporters.

    1. Just noticed this. During the havertz goal, Nketiah ran inwards at goal a moment after Saka launched the cross. It shouldve been clear to him that the ball would pass his head, but where he ended up was right in front of the goalie. If that havertz header was blocked (but not caught), Nketiah wouldve been in prime position to poach the ball in.

      Seems like they trained for this crossing manuever to the far post

    2. What a pass from Trossard! It's amazing how he can turn around and save the ball on such a small court, between two opponents!
      And it was a great shot by Rice, but if he had scored, I would have said it was probably one of the most skillful and unexpected assists I've ever seen.

    3. Overall, the match was dubious, but Arsenal prevailed in the end, vaulting us to the top of the standings. Saka has had incredible G/A so far this season.
