Kai Havertz emerged as the hero with a late winner, propelling Arsenal to the top of the Premier League. Still, it was Aaron Ramsdale who breathed a sigh of relief after a nervy performance at Brentford to secure a clean sheet.
Brentford’s determined tactics and high press resulted in a stop-start match, but Havertz’s close-range goal in the 89th minute secured an important victory for Arsenal.
Goalkeeper Ramsdale was under intense scrutiny throughout the game, feeling the heat from Gareth Southgate’s comments and almost conceding an early goal. However, a vital late save ensured a clean sheet.
Ramsdale’s opposite number narrowly avoided a similar blunder, setting the stage for a tense climax. Despite the win, Arsenal’s imperfect performance left much to be desired.
