Oleksandr Zinchenko was dealing with Olise well, while Zaha continued to threaten and came very close to scoring in the 72nd minute. Despite not looking nervous after a poor result during the week – which would be understandable – Arsenal were once again close to going behind, but Odsonne Edouard could not hold his line, nor beat Ramsdale, after bursting through on goal.
The second goal went from left to right, with Saka scoring to make it 2-0 to the league leaders. In case you weren’t aware already, this kid is very special. Arsenal did some nice work down the left and Granit Xhaka’s cross went all the way through to Saka, who worked some magic with Benjamin White, who provided an assist for a chance the England winger had to convert.
Palace scored, but Mikel Arteta instantly responded by bringing on Gabriel Jesus, which made the home crowd all chirpy again.
