Arsenal FC travelled to the Stadium of Light to play Sunderland and picked all three points. This win sends them straight to the top of the table. Nevertheless, a convincing win from Liverpool and Tottenham or any win at all by Man City would push them down.
Alexis Sanchez kicked off the party in the 19th minute with a stunner. It seemed like the party was about to be over when Jermain Defoe equalized with a penalty. “We missed so many chances, so many opportunities and I was worried we could lose” Arsene Wenger said in his post-match interview.
However, Arsene Wenger’s men proved their worth as Olivier Giroud found the net twice to put his side 2 goals up against the Black Cats. Alexis Sanchez wrapped it all up with his second in the 74th minute. This is Arsenal’s seventh win this season and haven’t recorded any defeat since Liverpool in their opening game.
The Gunners travel to the White Hart Lane next Sunday to play Tottenham.
