Arsenal delivered a commanding performance to secure a 3-0 victory over Nottingham Forest at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday, reigniting their Premier League title ambitions.
Bukayo Saka set the tone early, opening the scoring in the 15th minute. The winger exchanged passes with Martin Odegaard, danced past two defenders, and unleashed a stunning strike into the top corner.
Ghanaian midfielder Thomas Partey, who came off the bench in the second half, doubled Arsenal’s lead with a spectacular 20-yard curler, showcasing his trademark long-range precision. Youngster Ethan Nwaneri sealed the win with a late goal, capping a dominant display by the Gunners.
Partey’s goal marked his second of the season in 12 Premier League appearances. The 31-year-old is enjoying a strong campaign, having already started 11 league games—surpassing last season’s tally of nine.
The victory keeps Arsenal in fourth place on the table with 22 points, trailing second-placed Manchester City by one point and leaders Liverpool by six. Liverpool, however, have a game in hand, adding extra pressure on the Gunners as the title race heats up.
