In the Premier League, Arsenal FC strengthened its provisional leadership position on Tuesday evening. After all, the Gunners took fire from city rivals Chelsea FC and won 5-0. Leandro Trossard also played a key role in this.
A week ago, the title battle turned completely in Manchester City’s favor. The reigning champion then won convincingly against Luton Town, while pursuers Arsenal and Liverpool FC lost points. They even lost to Aston Villa and Crystal Palace respectively.
However, last weekend the pair were able to come alongside again. After all, City played in the semi-finals of the FA Cup on Saturday evening, so they did not play competitive football. And both pursuers managed to benefit from this by winning their respective competition matches.
Important opening goal
Arsenal were even able to take the lead in this way. And on Tuesday the Gunners managed to strengthen their position somewhat. Coach Mikel Arteta’s team showed no mercy to Chelsea: 5-0. This means they are already 4 points ahead of City, which still has two matches to play.
In any case, the pressure was further increased, so it was an important victory for the Londoners. And Trossard also had his share in that. The Red Devil started again in the base. He played a strong match from the left and even scored the opening goal.
Red Devil in blood form
The next day he received praise in the English press. “Another crucial goal at this stage of the season. And then some great actions from one of the most consistent players at the Gunners,” writes Football.London. “Set the tone early and caused a lot of problems for the opponent when he cut inside,” said The Daily Mail.
Trossard now has 15 goals to his name this season. “He continued his excellent form with the opening goal. Only Bukayo Saka has scored more at Arsenal this season,” said London Evening Standard. “A great opener and he looked strong again after his great match against Wolves last weekend,” he concluded.
