Arsenal showed extreme desire and resolve for the second time in three weeks to win a Premier League game 3-2 with a last-gasp winner. The Gunners ended a four-game winless run at Villa Park last month when a Jorginho rocket rebounded off the crossbar and hit Emi Martinez before rolling into the net and on Saturday Mikel Arteta's men provided another dramatic comeback, with Reiss Nelson striking late.
The Premier League leaders saw their title rivals Manchester City close the gap down to two points after they beat Newcastle in the lunchtime game ahead of the Gunners' clash with Bournemouth. Pep Guardiola's men dispatched of the Cherries comfortably last weekend, but the Gunners were made to work hard for their victory.
A goal after just seven seconds from Phillip Billing gave Bournemouth the lead before Marcos Senesi doubled the visitors advantage just prior to the hour mark. The unlikely duo of Thomas Partey and Ben White brought Arsenal level with 20 minutes to play, before Nelson fired home the winner with virtually the last kick of the game.
