Brighton end Arsenal’s perfect Premier League start
Arsenal's perfect start to their title defence ended with a 3-0 trouncing by Brighton, while Tottenham remains winless after a 3-2 defeat to Aston Villa.
Brighton maintained their strong start to the Premier League season with a 3-0 victory over Arsenal at the Amex Stadium on Saturday. Goals from Pascal Gross, Charalampos Kostoulas, and Chema Andres breached Arsenal's typically impenetrable defense. Manager Mikel Arteta acknowledged that his team lacked fundamentals for extended periods and recognized it as a valuable lesson.
This marks the third consecutive season that the Premier League champions have suffered a loss at the Amex Stadium, following defeats to Liverpool and Manchester City in the two preceding years. Brighton entered the match with confidence after a remarkable League Cup victory over Manchester United, where they came from 2-0 down to secure a 3-2 triumph.
