Arsenal‘s unbeaten start to the 2024/25 season continued with another impressive win over Southampton. The Gunners secured a 3-1 victory, making it their fourth consecutive win in all competitions and extending their unbeaten run to ten games before the international break in October. Kai Havertz, Bukayo Saka, and substitute Gabriel Martinelli were the goal scorers for Arsenal in the Premier League match, helping them keep up with Manchester City and Liverpool in the title race.
According to player ratings from 90min, Bukayo Saka was Arsenal’s standout performer. He played a crucial role in the team’s second-half comeback by providing assists for Havertz and Martinelli’s goals before scoring one himself towards the end of the game. Saka created a total of seven chances for his teammates during this match.
Saka’s contributions took his tally for the season to ten goals in ten appearances across all competitions. It is evident that he is currently performing at a world-class level.
Meanwhile, Kai Havertz continues to impress as well. His goal against Southampton made him only the fifth player in Arsenal history to score in seven consecutive home games. The quality of his finish showcased his confidence and skill as he curled it into the bottom corner from outside of the box.
Gabriel Martinelli also had reason to celebrate as he scored his second goal of the season after finding the back of net against Leicester City last weekend.
things are starting to fall into place for Arsenal with key players like Saka, Havertz, and Martinelli delivering strong performances on a consistent basis.
