Arsenal v Manchester United: Premier League – live

The article discusses the match between Arsenal and Manchester United, with Arsenal ultimately winning 1-0. The goal was scored by Lisandro Martinez, who stabbed the ball into his own net after Saka played a short-range chip back towards him.

Arsenal were much the better team in the first half, but they lost their lead when Martin Zubimendi's errant backpass was accepted with thanks by Bryan Mbeumo. However, Arsenal regained the lead before halftime through Martinez's own goal.

In the second half, Manchester United had several chances to equalize, including a shot from 15 yards that was blocked by Maguire and a volleyed finish from Bryan Mbeumo that Raya may have gotten to anyway.
 
.. what does it say about us as fans when we can't even celebrate our own goal? Like, Lisandro Martinez scores for his own team and everyone's like "woohoo, own goal!" 🤣 it's almost like we're more invested in the opposing team's chances than our own. and I'm not saying that's a bad thing, but... I mean, is that just how we're wired as fans? are we always looking for ways to find flaws in our own team's performance? 🤔
 
I don’t usually comment but I gotta say, what an absolute mess of a match 🤯🏀. Arsenal looked so much sharper in the first half and it's crazy they didn't capitalize on their chances. That own goal from Martinez was just wild 😂, like who plays into their own net?

I don’t know if Manchester United will ever get over that miss from Bryan Mbeumo 🤦‍♂️... 15 yards out and he still can't score? And Maguire has got to be the one who blocks that shot in the second half... what a block 💪! But I gotta give credit to Arsenal, they played some really smart football and deserved the win ⚽️. Still weird that Lisandro Martinez's goal was gonna be the winner for them 🤔
 
🤔 so i'm watching this match and i gotta say, arsene Wenger's ghost is definitely smiling about arsenal's performance lol. they were like the better team for like 90% of the first half, but then mbeumo comes in and makes us question our life choices 🙄.

anyway, that whole own goal thing was just crazy... lisandro martinez literally just tapped it into his own net, no need for any special moves 💪. and to be fair, man united had some decent chances too, but raya's a beast in the box 🤯.

i think what really matters here is that arsenal showed they're not just a flash in the pan, but they can actually hold their own against top teams 🔥. and for man united, it's like... well, there's always next match, right? 😊
 
I'm so confused about this match lol 😂. Like I know Arsenal were way better in the first half, but then they just kinda... dropped off? 🤔. And can we talk about how Lisandro Martinez scored a goal for himself? 🙈 I mean, at least he got some screen time right? 😜. But seriously, Manchester United had some crazy chances to equalize and it's like they just missed out on the whole thing. Maybe if they hadn't wasted so many free kicks... 🤷‍♂️. I don't know, Arsenal win but I still think Man U should've won 👀.
 
Man, what a game! 😂 I'm loving how Arsenal played like they didn't want to lose it in the end. All that pressure on Manchester United, and they just couldn't get anything going. And oh man, Lisandro Martinez's goal is still the best moment of the match – I mean who scores a goal by accident? 🤣 But seriously, Arsenal showed great determination and teamwork to come back from behind. They really deserved that win!
 
omg did u see that game!!! i'm literally still on a high! arsenal played so much better in the first half, but then they just kinda fell apart and gave man utd a chance, idk what was goin through their minds lol. and that own goal by martinez?? like who does that?! but to give credit where credit is due, i thought man utd had some great chances, esp Bryan Mbeumo's volley, would've been nice if he got it past raya... still a huge 3 points for the gunners tho! 🤩🔴
 
omg i cant beleev wat happend in dat match lol! arsenal was defo the better team 4 most of it they got all the posession & created like 10 chances but luckily they got a goal thru martinezs own ghol 😂👀 i mean who scores an own goal 🤣 its like the universe is playin jokins on em. and then they loose ther lead but gain it back 2! what a turn of events. manchester united had soo many chances tho like wat r they doin? maguire blockin shots left & right lol. anyways arsenal all 3 pts 💯👏
 
so like what is up with martin zubimendi's backpass lol it was so easy for mbeumo to score 🤦‍♂️ i think arsene Wenger must be turning in his grave, all these goals from own mistakes 😳 and can someone explain to me why maguire blocked that shot? like wouldn't he want to try and create a chance instead of blocking it? 🤔 anyways, great win for arsenal, lisandro martinez's goal was hilarious 🤣
 
Ugh, what a crazy match! 🤯 I'm still trying to wrap my head around how Arsenal came back like that. They were totally dominated in the first half, but then somehow managed to turn it around. And that goal from Martinez... 😂 I mean, come on! He stabbed it into his own net! What are the chances?! 💀

And don't even get me started on Manchester United's lack of finishing. They had so many chances and couldn't score. It's like they just gave up at times. 🤦‍♂️ And Maguire, what a block! That was such a crucial save. Raya made some great saves too, but that one block from Maguire... 💪

I'm still shaking my head about this one. Arsenal's win was definitely deserved, but it was a crazy, back-and-forth match. 😅
 
omg did u see that game?! 🤯 so I'm watching the replay and I'm like 'seriously' how does a own goal happen?! 😂 lisandro martinez literally stabbed the ball into his own net! i mean, arsene Wenger would've been so proud of him... err i mean not. 😂 anyway, u gotta admit it's pretty funny when u see the replay and u're like 'aha I knew it was gonna be a messy game!' 💪

but seriously, manchester united were all over the place in that first half they just couldn't capitalize on their chances 🤦‍♂️. and then martin Zubimendi makes this backpass that's like, what even is that? 😂 arsene Wenger's gonna be like 'that was a masterclass in giving away possession' hahahaha.

anyway, lisandro martinez's goal was pretty wild... i mean it's not every day u see someone score a goal by accident 🤣. but at the end of the day, 1-0 is still a win for arsenal 👏
 
I'm still trying to wrap my head around that crazy own goal by Lisandro Martinez 🤯! I mean, the guy's got skills, but come on! You can't just stab your own team in the back like that... or rather, in the goal 😂. It was a wild game, though - Arsenal looked so dominant in the first half, and then Manchester United just came out of nowhere to even it up.

I love how Bryan Mbeumo got a chance to volley in that second half, but he just couldn't seem to get anything past Raya 🤔. And can we talk about Saka for a sec? That kid's got magic on the field - his chip back to Martinez was perfect 😍. But, all in all, it was an intense match, and I'm happy Arsenal came out on top! ⚽
