"Arsenal's incredible set-piece ability earned them three points against Chelsea. Arsenal have endured a lot of that lately, and it's one reason why they won't especially care about debates on the nature of this win. They had to get through it, and through this period."
"This 2-1 win over Chelsea does feel like it will be held up as a defining game in a wider Premier League shift. All three goals came through set pieces, and none of them especially clean either. It was that kind of game, as Chelsea now have to dig in and turn a corner of their own."
Arsenal secured a 2-1 victory over Chelsea with all three goals coming from set pieces, marking a significant moment in the Premier League title race. Manager Mikel Arteta acknowledged the team had to endure difficult conditions, though he disputed characterizations of the win as ugly. This victory follows recent draws against Brentford and Wolves, making consecutive wins in challenging London derbies particularly valuable for Arsenal's momentum and confidence. The result demonstrates Arsenal's set-piece proficiency and their ability to navigate difficult matches, which could prove crucial as the season progresses.
