Arsenal have taken the top spot in the Premier League table after a convincing 3-0 victory over Nottingham Forest at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday. The win marked a strong return to action for the Gunners following the international break, as they looked to rebound from a 1-0 defeat at Liverpool in their previous outing.
The match began with Arsenal dominating the early exchanges, creating several scoring opportunities before Martin Zubimendi eventually broke the deadlock with a well-taken volley just before halftime. The goal gave the home team a deserved lead and set the tone for the second half.
Immediately after the restart, Arsenal doubled their advantage as Eberechi Eze provided a precise pass to Viktor Gyokeres, who slotted the ball past the Forest goalkeeper. The goal effectively sealed the win for Arsenal, and they continued to press forward in search of more goals. Zubimendi scored his second of the match, heading in a cross from Leandro Trossard to complete the scoring.
The result sees Arsenal move to the top of the Premier League table with nine points from four fixtures. However, their stay at the summit may be short-lived, as Liverpool have the opportunity to overtake them when they travel to Burnley on Sunday. The Premier League season is still in its early stages, but Arsenal’s win over Nottingham Forest demonstrates their intent to challenge for the title. With several key fixtures upcoming, Arsenal will look to maintain their momentum and solidify their position at the top of the table.
