HIGHLIGHTS | Burnley vs Arsenal (0-1) | Premier League | Odegaard with a beautiful free-kick!
The left foot of Martin Odegaard made all the difference as we chalked up back-to-back 1-0 wins in the Premier League. On a hot and sunny afternoon at Turf Moor, the Norwegian midfielder sent a perfectly-placed free-kick beyond the grasp of Nick Pope to seal victory for Mikel Arteta's side. We started the faster of the two sides, with a dangerous low ball from Kieran Tierney threatening the Burnley goal as Nicolas Pepe forced Pope into action. The hosts threatened sparingly. Ben Mee headed over Aaron Ramsdale's goal from a corner, before Gudmundsson's strike was saved by our new stopper. Emile Smith Rowe threatened to score a second when he connected with Pepe's cut-back, but his curling effort whizzed narrowly over Pope's crossbar. The second half brought more opportunities for the Clarets than the first, with Ramsdale forced into action to deny a powerful strike from Maxwel Cornet after the Ivorian international stepped off the bench. Our goalkeeper was in the thick of the action again soon after, when he was adjudged to have tripped Matej Vydra in the box after a backpass from Ben White. However, a VAR review quickly corrected the situation - much to the relief of the travelling support - and no penalty was awarded. Dwight McNeil then drilled a low shot into the side-netting, while Vydra flicked a header just beyond the far post soon after. Frustration grew in the ground as Sean Dyche's side attempted to battle their way back into the game. Despite a late spell of pressure and a couple of forced nervy moments, our defence stood firm in the face of waves of Burnley attacks. The victory marks consecutive clean sheets and sees us continue to build some much-needed positive momentum ahead of next weekend's north London derby. #arsenal #odegaard #burnley Enjoy match highlights, training and behind the scenes to get closer to the likes of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Vivianne Miedema, Nicolas Pepe, Alexandre Lacazette, Leah Williamson, Bernd Leno, Emile Smith Rowe, Nikita Parris, Tobin Heath, Mana Iwabuchi, Jordan Nobbs, Bukayo Saka, Takehiro Tomiyasu, Kim Little, Gabriel Martinelli, Aaron Ramsdale, Beth Mead, Ben White, Thomas Partey and more.

Late, late derby equalizer for Birmingham City..... | Highlights
Veatriki Sarri scored deep into injury time as Birmingham City salvaged a vital point to stay above Women's Super League relegation rivals Aston Villa. Freya Gregory's strike, after her initial effort hit the bar, seemed sure to take Villa three points clear of the drop zone with two games left. The 18-year-old's goal was the only on-target attempt in 90 minutes. But Sarri's messy leveller means Blues stay two points clear of Villa and three above bottom side Bristol City. Birmingham's players and management celebrated as if the goal was enough to avoid the drop, but with title-chasing Manchester City still to play, their survival could rest on getting a result against Tottenham on the final day. Villa, who face West Ham and Arsenal in their final two fixtures, appeared devastated having rarely looked like conceding after 18-year-old Gregory scored her first professional goal on a swift counter-attack. They could have been ahead by then, with Chloe Arthur diverting an effort wide and Mana Iwabuchi twice narrowly off target with strikes. But Gregory's goal looked good enough for maximum points until Sarri's free-kick from wide on the right somehow eluded everyone and found the net five-and-a-half minutes into six minutes of added time. #WomenSuperLeague. #BirminghamCityWomen #AstonVillaWomen #Chloe Arthur #ManaIwabuchi #FreyaGregory #VeatrikiSarri
