Sunderland 0-2 Arsenal: Saka seals win after Le Fee misses penalty in dramatic finale (highlights)

Arsenal maintained their perfect start to the Premier League season with a hard-fought 2-0 victory over Sunderland at the Stadium of Light, extending their winning run to four matches. The first half was a tense, cagey affair with few clear chances. Reinildo Mandava was booked on 28 minutes for a foul. The game exploded into life in the second half when Sunderland were awarded a penalty on 56 minutes after Gabriel Magalhaes brought down Enzo Le Fee. But the decision was overturned by VAR for an offside in the build-up, and Le Fee's spot-kick was saved by David Raya anyway. Arsenal made the most of their reprieve. On 58 minutes, Bruno Guimaraes opened the scoring, finishing calmly from Declan Rice's cross. Sunderland pushed for an equaliser but found Raya in inspired form. Daniel Ballard was booked on 66 minutes, Granit Xhaka on 69, and Brian Brobbey on 81. In stoppage time, Nordi Mukiele and Gabriel were cautioned on 90+1, Kai Havertz on 90+3, and Mandava received a second yellow on 90+6. Deep into added time, Bukayo Saka sealed the victory on 90+7, converting Guimaraes' pass. Sunderland had 9 shots with 3 on target and 38% possession, while Arsenal registered 17 shots with 7 on target. Guimaraes was named man of the match. With 12 points from four games, Arsenal top the table, while Sunderland remain 15th with three points.
