Arsenal 2-1 Chelsea: Odegaard & Havertz inspire comeback win in London derby (full highlights)

Arsenal maintained their perfect start to the Premier League season with a thrilling 2-1 comeback victory over Chelsea at a packed Emirates Stadium. The champions showed their title credentials after falling behind inside two minutes. Morgan Rogers stunned the home crowd with a first-time volley from the edge of the box, scoring his third goal of the campaign. Arsenal responded with relentless pressure. Riccardo Calafiori had a goal ruled out for offside following a VAR review, but Kai Havertz levelled on 25 minutes, cutting inside and beating Emiliano Martinez at his near post. The winner came five minutes after the break when Martin Odegaard fired home from Christos Tzolis' pass after Havertz's clever dummy. David Raya preserved the victory with a stunning 89th-minute save to deny Estevao. Mikel Arteta later described Chelsea as the best attacking team in the league. Arsenal dominated possession with 58% and registered 17 shots. With nine points, Arsenal share top spot with Manchester City, while Chelsea drop to sixth. Can Arteta's men extend their winning run in the North London derby next week?
