Premier League Saturday: Henderson double fuels Chelsea as Spurs, Arsenal savour late drama
Dominic Solanke's last-gasp header spared Roberto De Zerbi’s Spurs following Rodrigo Bentancur’s red card, while Mikel Arteta’s Gunners turned the tide against Leeds after a tense first half.
On Saturday, Chelsea secured a 5-1 victory over Bournemouth, marking their first win in four league matches. The team opened the scoring just one minute into the second half as Jordan Henderson's goal set the tone. João Pedro scored twice more, and Evanilson connected a miscued clearance for Bournemouth. Despite the impressive performance, Chelsea struggled to keep a clean sheet, extending their goalless run to 22 matches.
Midfielder Henderson, 36, contributed a second goal in the 70th minute with a powerful free-kick, totaling 23 goals in just eight matches across all competitions for the Premier League champions.
