Arsenal 2-1 Brentford

We moved to the top of the Premier League as Kai Havertz’s fourth goal in successive league games sealed a hard-fought win over Brentford. 

Declan Rice opened the scoring with a fine header, but an error from the returning Aaron Ramsdale just before half-time allowed Bees striker Yoane Wissa to divert his clearance into our net to level the scores. 

Our keeper redeemed himself with two great saves in the second half to keep us level, before Havertz popped up with five minutes remaining to net the strike that sent us back to the division’s summit after eight successive domestic victories.
