EPL: Onyeka In Action As Havertz’s Solitary Goal Earns Arsenal Vital Victory Over Brentford

Super Eagles midfielder, Frank Onyeka was in action as Brentford lost 1-0 to Arsenal in Saturday’s Premier League game.

The Nigerian international, who was making his 11th appearance for Brentford, was substituted in the 90th minute for Lewis-Potter.

Arsenal’s Leandro Trossard had a goal ruled out in the first half by the video assistant referee but defeat was harsh on Brentford who were only denied goals of their own by exceptional clearances off the line from Declan Rice and Oleksandr Zinchenko.
