Arsenal take the three points vs Man Utd to keep the title race alive

Arsenal secured a crucial victory over Manchester United at Old Trafford, reigniting their title hopes and setting up a thrilling final day in the Premier League. Despite facing intense pressure from the hosts in the second half, Mikel Arteta’s side held on to claim a 1-0 win.

Leandro Trossard proved to be the hero for Arsenal, netting the decisive goal in the first half. Taking advantage of slack defending from United, Trossard tapped in Kai Havertz’s cutback to give Arsenal the lead in the 20th minute.

It was a functional rather than spectacular performance from Arteta’s men, but it proved effective in securing all three points.

The victory sees Arsenal reclaim the top spot in the Premier League table, edging ahead of Manchester City by a single point, although City have a game in hand. Arsenal’s focus now shifts to City’s upcoming fixtures, hoping for dropped points as they prepare to face Everton in their final match of the season next Sunday.
