Arsenal had trailed for almost 70 minutes against Fulham FC at the Emirates this afternoon, but with a matter of moments, we now find ourselves ahead.
A fine run from substitute Fabio Vieira saw a frustrated Tete make a reckless slide tackle in his own box to give away the initial penalty, which Bukayo Saka stepped up to send the goalkeeper the wrong way. While we could barely contain ourselves from the equaliser, we soon found ourselves thrust into the lead by another sub’s fine work when Eddie Nketiah smashed it home.

Big Ups to Viera and Nketiah.. HORRENDOUS performances from KAI HAVERTZ and Ramsdale. Saka mediocre, starting eleven’s passing sickening . Martinelli gave his all. I will never understand why Leandro left the pitch before Harvetz. Aren’t we being sabotaged here by a Chelsea agent we payed £65 million for? What is this infatuation with the German? Where’s Smith-Rowe who’s now supposed to be ahead of Giorginho on the team list?
