Arsenal the Gunners did not disappoint as they clutch their first win in 2025 against Brentford on match-round 19.
At the Brentford Community Stadium in London, Brentford chose to exhibit their usual home firing power as they unleashed their bees to sting Arsenal in the 13th minute by Bryan Mbeumo which did not take too long for an inconsistent Arsenal side to find an equalizer kind courtesy, Gabriel Jesus on the 29th minute.
Therefore, the first half was rounded up with both sides finding the back of the net once and exhibiting some great attacking knowledge.
The visiting side, Arsenal approached the second half with clearly cut intentions of wanting to kill the game in the early stages of the game and try to unsettle the Bees in order to register more goals after.
Following that tactical information given to the player by the manager, after five minutes into the second half, Miguel Merino, an unusual goal scorer gave Arsenal the lead for the first time in the game which triggered the home side to begin to chase the game and hence, enabling Gabriel Martinelli to further increase Arsenal’s goal tally to three and deepening the woes of Brentford.
There after, series of half-chances were orchestrated by both team but yet no goals were recorded hence, ending the very interesting game in a 1-3 score line in favor of Arsenal the Gunners who’s fire power on the night could not be quenched by Brentford.
However, Arsenal’s win over Brentford has propelled them to occupy the second position on the league standings with only six points behind league leaders Liverpool who are yet to play their round-19 game meanwhile, a win for Nottingham Forest would mean that, they will go above the Gunners with an advantage point.
