Arsenal 2-3 Manchester United, Premier League: Red Devils Stun Gunners In Five-Goal Classic
Arsenal suffered a dramatic home defeat as Manchester United stunned the Gunners 3-2 at the Emirates Stadium, cutting the leaders’ advantage at the top of the Premier League. Arsenal took an early lead when United’s Lisandro Martínez diverted the ball into his own net, but United hit back before half-time as Bryan Mbeumo capitalised on a defensive error to level. In the second half, Patrick Dorgu’s stunning strike put United ahead, before Arsenal responded through Mikel Merino’s late tap-in from a corner to make it 2-2. However, United sealed a remarkable comeback deep into stoppage time, as Matheus Cunha curled a sensational effort from distance to give the Red Devils their first Emirates win since 2017 and dent Arsenal’s title bid.
