On Friday August 5th, the boyz faced off against Crystal Palace in their first match of the new 22/23 season.
A clinically-finished header from our Brazilian maestro, Gabriel Martinelli and an own goal from Crystal's Guehi was enough to seal the three points into the bag for the Gunners.
This marked Arteta's 50th top-flight victory as manager for the Gunners, a feat which took him 98 matches to achieve.
Aaron Ramsdale played his part, having gotten the no.1 shirt from Bernd Leno, who just recently moved to Fulham. Rambo made awesome saves to keep the lads in front, denying Crystal's Odsonne Edouard and Eberichi Eze.
The defense stood firm, with William Saliba having a great time stomping any attempts from Crystal Palace and deservingly, been named as Man of The Match.
Two goals. A clean sheet. 3 Points. What a way to start the Premier League campaign I must say.
