Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta showed signs similar to that of Manchester United legend Sir Alex Ferguson as Reiss Nelson scored a last-gasp winner against Bournemouth at the Emirates Stadium. The Gunners were 2-0 behind at half-time before scoring three goals in the second half to take all three points and maintain their five-point lead over Manchester City at the top of the table.
Leandro Trossard was taken off with a suspected injury and replaced by Emile Smith Rowe - with the Hale End graduate grabbing an assist for Thomas Partey's strike to make it 2-1. Smith Rowe was then taken off in the 69th minute for Nelson as Arteta made the bold call to substitute a substitute as the Gunners searched for an equaliser.
That decision quickly paid off as Nelson assisted Ben White's equaliser before scoring a brilliant last-minute goal in injury time. The Emirates Stadium went crazy with Martin Odegaard and Gabriel Magalhaes falling to the ground in relief, whilst William Saliba kicked a corner flag amidst the chaos as players, staff and supporters all celebrated the crucial winner.
