Arsenal deliver statement fightback to end Chelsea’s flying start
Morgan Rogers gave the visitors an early lead, but Kai Havertz and Martin Odegaard secured a 2-1 comeback victory for the Gunners.
Arsenal's Kai Havertz equalized against his former club Chelsea, while Martin Odegaard scored the winning goal in a 2-1 victory on Sunday at the Emirates Stadium. The London derby ended Chelsea's unbeaten start, which had put them in contention for the Premier League title. The Gunners, who have won all three league matches so far, showed maturity to end a title drought dating back to 1930s.
Chelsea's defense, which had conceded five goals in their first two league games under manager Xabi Alonso, continued to be vulnerable. The match culminated in exasperated chants from Arsenal fans after Jordy Clasie's equalizer.
