Arsenal showcased their dominance from set pieces yet again as they secured a 2-0 victory over Manchester United at the Emirates Stadium. Goals from Jurriën Timber and William Saliba, both scored from corners, highlighted the Gunners' efficiency in dead-ball situations.

Set-Piece Supremacy

With these goals, Arsenal extended their record as the most prolific team from corners in the Premier League since the start of last season. They have now scored an impressive 21 goals from corners during this period, more than any other side in the league.

Additionally, Arsenal boast the two top providers of assists from set plays in the Premier League since the beginning of last season. Both Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka have delivered seven assists each from set-piece situations, underlining their crucial contributions to the team’s attacking arsenal.

Rising in the Table

Thanks to this victory, Arsenal extended their winning streak to three matches and climbed to third place in the Premier League standings. The Gunners look well-positioned to maintain their push for the title as the season progresses.

For Manchester United, the defeat marked the first loss under new manager Ruben Amorim, who recently took charge at Old Trafford. The Red Devils will look to bounce back quickly to avoid slipping further in the race for a top-four finish.
