Liverpool playing early in round 29 and being held to a draw by Aston Villa is the best news for anyone following the English Premier League which is currently in its climax. The leading team continuously losing points is an opportunity for the chasing group, especially Arsenal, to narrow the gap and rekindle the English championship race instead of having to witness a solo performance by "The Kop"...
Home team Arsenal completely outclassed by neighbors West Ham
Arsenal enter the highly anticipated London derby against West Ham at home with the goal of 3 points. The "Gunners" need a win to put pressure on Liverpool, who will play later in the round with a big match against Man City.
Unfortunately, instead of gaining points, Arsenal lost all their advantages with a terrible performance against their city rivals. Coach Mikel Arteta's players played poorly both offensively and defensively, constantly being pressured by West Ham despite having home field advantage.
Jarrod Bowen's diving header sank the Gunners' hopes
Not only that, in the 44th minute, the entire Arsenal defense was almost helpless against West Ham's lightning-fast counterattack, helplessly watching Wan-Bissaka pass the ball to Jarrod Bowen to head the ball past goalkeeper David Raya.
Lewis-Skelly's sending off adds to Arsenal's woes
Conceding a goal and having to play with one less man for the last 20 minutes of the match (young defender Lewis-Skelly received a direct red card), Arsenal could not turn the situation around and suffered a surprising defeat right at home.
The Gunners' ambition to win the Premier League continues to be questioned as the North London team is still 8 points behind leaders Liverpool despite playing the same number of matches.
Taking the field at the same time, fate seemed to be smiling on Tottenham after a series of difficult and miserable matches. Traveling to Ipswich Town's Portman Road stadium, the "Roosters" started the match somewhat slowly and almost paid the price with the home team's attacks in the first few minutes of the match.
Brennan Johnson scored twice from assists from captain Son Heung-min
On a sublime day, captain Son Heung-min spread terror on the left flank with his fast-paced attacks, ending with cross-field passes like a set-piece. With the same "scenario", the duo Son Heung-min and Brennan Johnson brought home two goals in the 18th and 26th minutes.
Kulusevski seals 4-1 win for Tottenham
Omari Hutchinson pulled one back for Ipswich Town at the end of the first half, but Diop Spence and Dejan Kulusevski were on target in the second half to give Tottenham a 4-1 win. The Spurs climbed to 12th place in the table after the emotional win.
Playing the latest match of the night on February 22, Chelsea suffered a bitter defeat against home team Aston Villa despite opening the score in the 9th minute by Enzo Fernandez.
