Manchester United have immediately responded to our second goal with Cristiano Ronaldo cutting Arsenal’s lead back down to one.
The Gunners had stormed into the early lead when Nuno Tavares latched onto the rebound inside the opening five minutes, before Bukayo Saka doubled our lead just after the half-hour mark.
Before the adrenaline had seeped from our veins our lead was cut to one, with Ronaldo sneaking inside the defender to put the cross away, scoring his 100th Premier League goal in the process

We’ve now gone into the break with our one-goal lead, and want to see more of the same over the coming 45 minutes, with our side having enjoyed the better of the game thus far.

Awful from Gabriel, another piece of slack defending from him. Panic!!!!!!
Yep. Spot on. It’s another soft goal. Odegard should be closing down that cross too though!
Cedric is causing problems for us, his awareness is awful, his passing poor, we need Martinelli to pressure their defence
Can i just add Ronaldo is a freak of nature and a living legend!!!!!!!!
Yes he is
Even in a poor team he rises and rose above the rest of the Utd team
We are weakened by a thin squad
ManU had a team which on the face of it should have brushed us aside. Ronaldo is a legend and gave 💯
