Arsenal crush Burnley, chase Liverpool

Visiting Burnley is a great opportunity for Arsenal to continue their winning streak in the Premier League. The Gunners soon realized their ambition with Odegaard's goal. In the 5th minute, from Martinelli's cross, Odegaard controlled the ball and shot powerfully from a distance to open the score for Arsenal.

However, the opening goal did not help Arsenal have an easy first half against Burnley. The home team defended persistently and played with a large number of players in their own half. The 1-goal gap meant that Burnley players did not need to rush. The home team's way of playing helped them have a good first half.

Arsenal beat Burnley.

But then, a mistake in defense cost Burnley. In the 41st minute, Leandro Trossard dribbled skillfully and was fouled in the penalty area. Bukayo Saka successfully kicked the penalty to increase the score to 2-0 for Arsenal.

In the second half, Burnley tried to push up their formation but to no avail. Just 2 minutes after the break, they continued to concede a goal. From Martin Odegaard's clever pass, Bukayo Saka marked a successful day with a finish that brought Arsenal's third goal.

By this point, Burnley had given up and were no longer chasing Arsenal's strikers. The home team only wanted to find a consolation goal and did not think about defending. In the 66th minute, Kiwior made a tricky pass into the penalty area, Kai Havertz did not touch the ball but the opportunity came to Trossard. He scored to increase the score to 4-0.

In the final minutes of the match, Kai Havertz himself had a delicate dribble to eliminate O'Shea before finishing with class to increase the score to 5-0.
