Arsenal Hand Amorim First Defeat As Liverpool Draw Newcastle

Manchester United’s winning streak under new manager Ruben Amorim came to an end last night as Arsenal handed them a 2-0 defeat.

After a goalless first half, two of Arsenal defenders rose up to the occasion and ensured that the resurgent Red Devils left the Emirate Stadium empty handed.

Jurriem Timber headed in Declan Rice corner in the 54th minute to give the Gunners the lead.

William Saliba put the game beyond Amorim and his boys when Thomas Partey headed Bukayo Saka’s corner against the French defender’s back and the ball went past Onana for Arsenal’s second goal.
