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.

HIGHLIGHTS | Arsenal vs Chelsea (3-2) | Women's Super League | Miedema, Mead (2)
We made the perfect start to our Barclays FA Women’s Super League season on Sunday with a thrilling 3-2 victory over Chelsea. Vivianne Miedema delivered a classy display with a goal and an assist, while Beth Mead scored twice in the second half to secure three valuable. Speaking in his pre-match interview, Jonas Eidevall highlighted his desire to see intensity and aggression from the start - and his team certainly delivered. Pressing from the front, we grabbed control of the game early on and with a stunning though ball, Katie McCabe picked out Vivianne Miedema to open the scoring. Our No 11 charged into the penalty area and evaded er marker with a smart turn, before firing home at the near post with a powerful effort. We pushed on from there too, with Frida Maanum forcing a difficult save from Ann-Katrin Berger and Mana Iwabuchi firing over from close range. The latter should have found the back of the net having already scored three goals in three games the club - and we were duly punished on the stroke of half-time. The visitors wrestled back some control with Ji So-Yun and Pernille Harder seeing plenty of the ball, before Erin Cuthbert found space inside our penalty area and finished into the bottom left corner. But we regained our energy after the restart and with an inch-perfect pass from Miedema, Mead raced through on goal and scored an outrageous effort with her weaker foot, curling into the top right corner from the edge of the area. Our No 9 had been sensational all afternoon and went on to score another, only this time she rounded Berger before dummying past the last defender and passing the ball into an empty goal. It was no less than we deserved for our hard work and resilience. Chelsea would go on to pull one back shortly after with Pernille Harder rising high in the penalty area to head home, but with the pressure mounting in the closing stages, our defence stood strong to secure three valuable points on the opening day of the season. #arsenal #chelsea #miedema #bethmead 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, Hector Bellerin, Jordan Nobbs, Bukayo Saka, Kim Little, Gabriel Martinelli, Beth Mead, Ben White, Thomas Partey and more.
