(Premier League 2022/2023): Highlights Arsenal - Bournemouth

Beating Newcastle United it's back on Arsenal to maintain their five-point lead as they host Bournemouth and the Emirates and all the action. Well away we go top of the second from bottom and a stadium Bournemouth have never even earned a draw at but they're looking for an early chance here and they've got it what a start how quick was that Philip Billing a matter of seconds on the clock goodness me a big goal for Bournemouth big blow for Arsenal what a stunning start for them there was almost a smile from Gary O'Neill wasn't there saying well Bournemouth finding spaces in the Arsenal back line Rothwell with a corner oh it's 2-0 it's huge to double their advantage the Cherries chastening the title chasers that's a super header from Sanessi it was worth the way wasn't it Rothwell with a delicious set piece the goal and then you're coming on to the football a little bit more full stretch nearly ended up in the back of the net Saka's corner that's awkward for Neto punches it in the air Smithrow keeps it alive for Arsenal almost parted a strike straight back the Gunners and it's 2-1 now to Bournemouth well Neto's not under a great amount of pressure I must admit said that's not a good punch doesn't get enough distance on it it's high up in the air Partey still still prods it to Nelson Nelson across oh that crossed the line this first goal for the Gunners well at least 10 minutes to go Erdogan's corner will it break for an Arsenal shirt and they're looking again he had that in goes the corner cleared only as far as Nelson has to get his shot right what a game what a sport and what about that strike for Rhys Nelson absolutely truly hit like a rocket Neto's got no chance I said they needed him from this final set piece it had to be of the game nothing he could do about that the corner really wasn't there to be taken they just don't they don't get out quickly enough yeah it's a it's a lukewarm attempt to actually block that shot and Rhys Nelson took full advantage what a hit what a game it's a rocket from Rhys to fire Arsenal to three points Arsenal
