#MUNARS14817Manchester United's record against Arsenal hasn't been great recently...Which way will this afternoon go? #MUNARS https://t.co/z6U37iTSyG Both Manchester United and Arsenal made a high-octane start to the game, as the initial exchanges were end-to-end. United had better chances as Diogo Dalot played some inch-perfect crosses into the box. Christian Eriksen latched onto one of them but made insufficient contact as the effort sailed wide. Scott McTominay started well as he imposed his physicality in midfield. Arsenal appeared to have snatched the lead via a swift counterattack that was finished off by Gabriel Martinelli. However, following a VAR review, the goal was disallowed for a foul by Martin Odegaard on Eriksen in the build-up. Despite United controlling possession, the Gunners were able to break forward in a flash. Antony made a telling impact on debut as he put Manchester United in front with a trademark finish in the 35th minute. Marcus Rashford provided an assist for the goal after picking the ball up in midfield. It gave his side some much-needed confidence as they looked determined in defense. The Gunners continued to try and carve out an opening but failed to breach Manchester United's defense. The hosts led 1-0 going into the break.

They shifted the ball well from side to side, trying to force Manchester United into making mistakes. Bukayo Saka gave Tyrell Malacia a hard time as he was put in two tough spots in the early exchanges after the restart. Saka was rewarded for his relentless effort at the stroke of the hour. He broke through United's lines and fired a low shot that found the back of the net to draw the Gunners level. It was all Arsenal in the second period as they continued to push men forward to try and grab the lead. However, Manchester United struck just six minutes later.
