Premier League: Arsenal Narrowly Beat Luton Town From Declan Rice's Stoppage Time Goal
Arsenal left it incredibly late to win by 4-3 at Luton Town in a thrilling match that witnessed Declan rice scoring a stoppage time to determine the fate of the game.
The seven-goal thriller kicked off with an opener from Gabriel Martinelli following Bukayo Saka's cross, which was followed shortly after by an equalizer from Gabriel Osho from Doughty's corner.
Arsenal regained the lead on the brink of halftime as Ben White's cross found Gabriel Jesus for a header from close range. Then, Luton responded with an equaliser just four minutes after the break as Doughty's cross found Elijah Adebayo for another header that beat David Raya to the goal.
With frustration building up in Arsenal, Luton shocked the vistors as Ross Barkley's struck and beat Raya to take the lead. Kai Havertz swiftly responded and leveled for Arsenal, volleying Jesus' lop pass over Kaminski from inside the 6-yard box.
Luton eventually conceded defeat in the injury time as Martin Odegaard's cross found Declan Rice to leap for a header that beat Kaminski to the goal and Arsenal won the game on stoppage time.
Quick Overview
Arsenal nearly paid dearly for a match that would have been considered a walkover which Luton came in all fired up for. Defensive wise, the hosts did well to keep their opponents away from getting goals enough to give them a comfortable game.
Meanwhile, there were some sense of rustiness in Arsenal's defense and Luton made most of that for having to score twice from a header. Likewise, their cordination was on top and well enough to put Arsenal to work.
