Arsenal dropped two valuable points away at Brighton & Hove Albion. Leandro Trossard started but had a complicated evening.
What if the Premier League title race had taken a big turn this Saturday? Arsenal went to Brighton & Hove Albion, and lost two precious points (1-1). Ethan Nwaneri, barely 17 years old, opened the scoring for the Gunners in the 16th minute of play.
But at the hour mark, a penalty was whistled in favor of the Seagullsand Joao Pedro was quick to transform it. Arsenal will not regain the advantage. Leandro Trossard started and will play the entire match for the Gunners… but will not have had a great evening.
Indeed, with each ball touched, Trossard was booed by his former audience. We remember that the Red Devil left Brighton & Hove Albion in strange circumstances, signing for Arsenal in January 2023 somewhat without warning rather than waiting until the end of the season.
With this result, Arsenal leaves Liverpool 5 points ahead… and the Reds have played two games less. A 6/6 and the gap will already be 11 points, which could well prove definitive…
