Arsenal returned back to winning ways as goals from Gabriel Jesus and Kai Havertz gave the Gunners a 2-0 win over Brighton in Sunday’s Premier League.
Arsenal were guilty of not taking their chances, with Gabriel Martinelli coming closest with a shot that went just over as the two teams went into the break at 0-0.
Mikel Arteta’s side were made to work hard for their win, with the visitors keeping them at bay for almost an hour despite the home side’s domination of the ball and the chances, but Gabriel Jesus and Kai Havertz scored second-half goals to give the Gunners the points.
