Arsenal and Fulham win on a busy Sunday in London

Arsenal secured a crucial 1-0 win over Chelsea in the Premier League, thanks to a Mikel Merino goal from a corner in the first half. The win keeps Arsenal in the hunt for a top-four spot, as they were the more assertive team throughout the match, creating more chances and ultimately deserving the win.

Chelsea, on the other hand, struggled to create clear-cut chances, with Enzo Maresca’s side ultimately falling short. The Blues’ lack of creativity in the final third was evident, and they were unable to penetrate Arsenal’s solid defense.

The win for Arsenal keeps them in the hunt for European football, and they will look to build on this momentum in their upcoming matches. The Gunners’ victory was built on a solid team performance, with every player contributing to the win. Arsenal’s defense was particularly impressive, with the back four marshaling Chelsea’s attack with ease.

In another exciting match, Fulham stunned Tottenham with a 2-0 victory at Craven Cottage. Ryan Sessegnon sealed the win with a curling finish against his former club, marking an emotional performance for the winger. Sessegnon, who struggled with injuries during his time at Spurs, was praised for his sensational finish and was serenaded with chants of “he’s one of our own” from the Craven Cottage crowd.

Fulham’s win was well-deserved, as they dominated the match from start to finish. The Cottagers’ attack was clinical, with Rodrigo Muniz opening the scoring in the first half. Sessegnon’s goal in the second half sealed the win, and Fulham’s players celebrated wildly in front of their jubilant fans.

Tottenham’s loss marks their sixth consecutive defeat before an international break under manager Ange Postecoglou. The defeat has sparked concerns among Spurs fans, with many calling for the manager’s head. Tottenham’s poor form has been a major concern, and the club’s hierarchy will be under pressure to make changes if the team’s fortunes do not improve.

Meanwhile, Fulham’s win has given them a significant boost in their quest for European football, propelling them into the mix for a European spot. The Cottagers’ victory has moved them up the table, and they will be looking to build on this momentum in their upcoming matches.
