Sunderland 0-2 Arsenal
Here Are 5 Things We Learned
1. Brobbey is a Beastly handful. He gave Big Gabby & Konsa a torrid time, and that's no mean feat.
2. We showed levels but remain wasteful in front of goal. The number of times we came close to scoring but didn't. Saka, uncharacteristically, still won #Arsenal the Pen and buried it.
3. Respect David Raya. MOTM performance, bailed the Gunners out with the penalty save (NOT a Pen), distributed well, for Pre assist Saka and kept another cleasheet. #EPLs No.1 Goalie.
4. That Arsenal Defense is immense, and it showed again today; tough place to come play. We remained robust and resolute, not giving away big chances. Tzolis epitomised the attitude, in the 61st minute he lost the ball around the center circle and didnt sit around to sulk, instead he knuckled down and ran back to get a tackle in for the ball. Felt like a brawl of a game as the Black Cats made it a hard fought one.
5. It had to be Bruno G right? Booed from the get-go by Sunderland fans for his Geordie connections, 2 mins after a penalty save by Raya, he curls in a beauty into the top coner of the bar. You couldn't have written a better subplot
4W in 4, 2nd away game navigated with another clean sheet. Bring on Ipswich Town next. #EPL #Gooners #Anaijagunner #COYG
