Arsenal Secure Top Spot with 5-0 Thumping of Chelsea
Decisive Victory Extends Unbeaten Run
Highlights: Arsenal vs Chelsea 3-1 | Odegaard 2, Gabriel Jesus
Arsenal produced a dominant performance to crush Chelsea 5-0 in a thrilling Premier League clash, cementing their position at the top of the table. The Gunners showed their resilience after falling behind to an early Kai Havertz goal, with Martin Odegaard and Gabriel Jesus scoring twice each to seal an emphatic victory.
The match started with Chelsea on the front foot, and Havertz capitalized on a defensive error to give the Blues the lead. However, Arsenal responded with a stunning display of attacking prowess. Odegaard equalized with a sumptuous first-time finish from a Bukayo Saka cross, before Jesus netted twice within a 10-minute spell to give the Gunners a 3-1 advantage at the break.
After the interval, Arsenal continued to dominate possession and created numerous chances. Jesus completed his brace with a clinical strike before Ben White added a fifth from close range. The win extends Arsenal's unbeaten start to the season and takes them three points clear of Manchester City at the summit.
For Chelsea, the defeat marks a disappointing start to the Graham Potter era. The Blues have now lost two of their last three league games and will need to improve their defensive performance if they want to challenge for the title.
