Arsenal delivered a powerful statement with a 5‑0 win over Leeds United at the Emirates Stadium. The performance keeps Arsenal’s perfect start to the season alive and boosts confidence in their Premier League title push.
Jurriën Timber opened the scoring in the 34th minute with a header from a corner. Just before halftime, Bukayo Saka doubled the lead with a strong finish, giving Arsenal full control heading into the break.
After the restart, Viktor Gyökeres finally found his rhythm. The Swedish striker scored his first Premier League goal with a composed finish in the 48th minute and later added a penalty in stoppage time. Timber also scored his second of the night with another header in the 56th minute, completing a standout individual performance.
One of the most exciting moments came from 15-year-old debutant Max Dowman, who won the late penalty and impressed with maturity beyond his age. His performance was a bright spot and added to the buzz around Arsenal’s youth development.
However, not everything went smoothly. Both Bukayo Saka and Martin Ødegaard were forced off with injuries during the match. The team now awaits updates on their conditions ahead of future fixtures.
Arsenal will look to build on this big win as they prepare for tougher challenges ahead. With momentum on their side and new players stepping up, the squad appears well-equipped for a strong campaign.
