EPL: Arsenal equal record after 1-0 victory over Hull City

Arsenal defeated Hull City 1-0 at the Emirates on Saturday to equal their best-ever start to a Premier League campaign. The victory brings the Gunners to 27 points from their first 10 league matches. Daily Post Nigeria reported that captain Martin Odegaard scored the winning goal in the 72nd minute by pouncing on a loose ball inside the box.

According to Daily Trust, the winning goal occurred after Noni Madueke’s shot was saved, allowing Odegaard to slot in the rebound. The report noted that while the first half was congested and low on chances, Arsenal improved in the second period with close attempts from Christos Tzolis and Bruno Guimaraes. Daily Trust also stated that Arsenal moved to six points ahead of second-placed Manchester City and maintained a 14-match unbeaten streak against Hull City.
