Arsenal “Surrenders” as Man City Inches Closer to the Throne with One Victory

Haaland scored the 36th goal, Man City ƅеаt Everton beautifully

Man City travels to Goodison Park with the intent of securing all three points, while the host team desperately needs points to avoid relegation. After the opening whistle, the defending champion pressed Everton, but coach Dyche’s troops also performed admirably when defending tightly.

Everton’s defensive play kept Man City scoreless for most of the first half until the visiting team broke the tie. In the 37th minute, Gundogan blocked Mahrez’s cross with his thigh and then fired with his back to the goal, which the custodian Pickford was surprisingly unable to stop.

After conceding, Everton was swiftly punished by Manchester City. Gundogan crossed the ball precisely from the left into the penalty area in the 39th minute, and Haaland scored from close range to make the score 2-0.

Two goals brought Manchester City to the brink of victory, while the away team played comfortably and maintained pressure on the host team. In the fifth minute of the second half, Gundogan scored a decisive free kιϲk to make the score 3-0.

Everton attempted to find an honorable goal in the remaining time but was unsuccessful. Man City was able to unwind after scoring three goals.

In the end, Manchester City prevailed 3-0 and improved to 85 points after 35 encounters.

Arsenal lost 0-3 to Brighton at home

Coach De Zerbi’s squad’s 3-0 victory at second-ranked Arsenal affirmed Brighton’s excellent performance against the Top 6 teams this season.

Brighton has no fеɑг of “Gunners” despite being a guest at Emirates. With a robust and mobile midfield, Brighton commanded the game more effectively than the home team. However, Brighton’s offense is inferior to Arsenal’s, resulting in a significantly lower number of shots than the team from Emirates Stadium. Unfortunately, neither team could strike in the first half despite their efforts.

Brighton played overwhelmingly right at Arsenal

In the 53rd minute, when Brighton ɑttɑϲked the left flank, Arsenal’s defense lacked concentration and allowed Brighton to score. Estupinan crosses the ball from near the sideline to Ensico, who heads it inside with a close-range deflection. The Arsenal defenders neglected the opposing striker, Ensico, and had to pay the price.

After conceding a goal, Arsenal was unable to recover and had difficulty driving the opponent back. In this half, the away team organized a stronger ɑttɑϲk than the home team, as Brighton maintained its superior ball control.

Arsenal “surrender” to Man City in the title race

The urgency increases Arsenal’s propensity for making errors. In the 86th minute, Ramsdale transferred the ball to Zinchenko, who played it carelessly, causing the ball to strike Gross’s foot and rebound to the opposing team’s foot. Undav easily deflected the ball over Ramsdale’s head to make the score 2-0.

The visiting team was close to achieving victory. In the sixth minute of stoppage time, Ramsdale blocked a shot from outside the penalty area, the ball rebounded, and Brighton’s Estupinan scored the game-winning goal.

Arsenal has 81 points after 36 rounds, four points behind league-leading Manchester City. Regardless of Arsenal’s results, Man City only needs to win one of its remaining three matches to secure the championship. Currently in sixth place with 58 points after 34 matches, Brighton can theoretically still contend for the top four.
