EPL: Arsenal, Man United secure wins as Tottenham suffer another defeat

November 11, 2023 7:04 pm

Arsenal strolled to a 3-1 win over Burnley in their English Premier League (EPL) game at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday.

Goals from Williams Saliba and Oleksandr Zinchenko pulled the Gunners away after Josh Brownhill had cancelled Leandro Trossard’s opener.

Fabio Vieira was shown a straight red card for a dangerous tackle late in the encounter as the home side finished with ten men.

Trossard made it two goals in four days just before half-time when the Belgian guided Bukayo Saka’s looping header on the line.

An unmarked Saliba converted another header from a corner kick to claim his first goal of the season, before Zinchenko slammed in on the half-volley following a poor clearance off another corner kick.

The win takes Mikel Arteta’s side back up to second on the EPL log with 27 points, the same as leaders Manchester City who have played a game less and have a superior goal difference.

In Manchester, Victor Lindelof scored the only goal for Man United in the second half as the Red Devils defeated Luton Town 1-0 at Old Trafford for a fourth league win in five matches.

Tottenham however conceded twice in added time to lose 2-1 at Wolverhampton Wanderers despite leading until the 90th minute. The London side had lost their unbeaten start and position at the top of the league on Monday and the latest loss sees them slide further down to third.
