Arsenal entertained Manchester United at the Emirates Stadium earlier this evening as they looked to secure a positive result at home in the Premier League. The Gunners made a decent start to the game and scored the opener in the 29th minute thanks to Lisandro Martinez’s own goal. Bryan Mbeumo equalised for the visitors in the 37th minute as the two teams went into the half-time break with a 1-1 scoreline.
Patrick Dorgu scored a wonder goal for Man United in the 50th minute, which was cancelled out by Mikel Merino’s effort in the 84th minute. Matheus Cunha scored the winning goal for the Red Devils in the 87th minute with a great strike as Mikel Arteta’s men crashed to a disappointing 3-2 loss at the Emirates.
