Gunners Choke: Bournemouth Smash Arsenal’s Nine-Game Streak to Blow Title Race Wide Open
It's a night in North London, and it feels like Arsenal’s dream is falling apart ,after 2-1 lose at home to Bournemouth. For nine games, they looked unstoppable, but on Saturday, everything fell apart. Arsenal had a great chance to go twelve points clear at the top of the Premier League table and relax, but they let it slip away after this loss. Kroupi is the first teenager to score ten or more goals in his debut Premier League season since Robbie Keane did so in the 1998-99 campaign. Arsenal still leads the Premier League with 70 points after 32 games, but Manchester City is close behind with 68 points from 30 games and will face Arsenal next weekend. **The Anfield Farewell** At Anfield, the focus was on legacy, not pressure. Liverpool beat Fulham 2-0 in a solid, professional performance. The highlight was a glimpse into the future. 17-year-old. The highlight was a look at what’s next. Seventeen-year-old Rio Ngumoha became the youngest player to score at Anfield, firing a powerful shot into the corner. The biggest cheer, though, was for Mohamed Salah. The 33-year-old, who is leaving at the end of the season, scored again with his signature style. He tapped the badge on his chest and waved to the fans. It seemed like a farewell. Champions League spot, sitting four points clear of a chasing Chelsea. Arne Slot looked relieved after a three-game skid. A clean sheet solves many problems.  **Chaos in the Mid-Table** Over at the Gtech Community Stadium, Brentford and Everton showed how tough the Premier League can be. They drew 2-2, leaving both teams frustrated. The best-kept secret in the league, bagging a brace to reach 21 goals for the season—surpassing the club records held by Ivan Toney and Bryan Mbeumo. But Everton refused to die. Beto stayed clinical, and a stoppage-time strike from Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall snatched a point at the death. And down at the bottom? Burnley is sinking. Mats, at the bottom of the table, Burnley is struggling. Mats Wieffer scored twice for Brighton, which likely ended Burnley’s hopes of staying up. They are 12 points from safety with only six games left. Relegation looks certain.
