Arsenal feels inevitable about winning each game as they continued their Premier League chase, coming back to beat Bournemouth 3-2 away. The match started with Bournemouth taking an early lead after just ten minutes, but the Gunners responded quickly, with Gabriel scoring from a set piece, marking Arsenal’s 12th goal from such plays this season.

Declan Rice’s return from injury was pivotal; he netted two goals, including a stunning effort from outside the box to clinch the lead in the 54th minute. This performance is a testament to Arsenal’s growth under Mikel Arteta, who appears to have cultivated a strong, cohesive unit.
