HIGHLIGHTS | Arsenal vs Fulham (2-2) | Saka, Nketiah

A late equaliser saw 10-man Fulham claim a 2-2 draw at Emirates Stadium, after we had fought back from a goal down to get ourselves in front.
The topsy-turvy affair started when Andreas Pereira stunned the home crowd when he netted within the first minute, but a second-half fightback saw Bukayo Saka score from the spot, and two minutes later Eddie Nketiah tucked home a Fabio Vieira cross to turn the game on its head.
Calvin Bassey was then dismissed for the Cottagers, but they still managed to hit back through Joao Palhinha with just four minutes remaining.
Things started in the worst possible fashion when after just 57 seconds, we fell behind. A loose pass by Saka was pounced upon by Pereira, and the Brazilian surprised Aaron Ramsdale by shooting first-time from 25 yards and seeing the ball curl into the net via the near post.
It took us some time to recover from that setback, and we mustered just a tame Gabriel Martinelli attempt before we nearly fell two goals behind.
With the ball bouncing inside our arena Raul Jimenez produced an acrobatic effort to hook the ball goalwards and saw it drop just the right side of the post from a home perspective, before Harry Wilson drilled wide soon after as Fulham continued to pose problems.
As the weather turned from a sunny summer’s day to torrential rain, the visitors soon found themselves soaking up plenty of pressure as we slowly found our rhythm. Saka saw a downward header from close range clear the crossbar before Leno shovelled a Martinelli drive around the near post, and then the Brazilian shot tamely at him again as our search for an equaliser continued.
We thought it had arrived when Havertz seemed to have sprung the offside trap and teed up Martin Odegaard to fire into the bottom corner but the offside flag rightly halted our celebrations, before the skipper tried his luck from further out but Leno did well to catch as the thunder and lightning greeting the half-time whistle.
The second 45 began with Bobby DeCordova-Reid bending a shot just wide of the far post, and soon after Arteta shuffled his pack by introducing Oleksandr Zinchenko and Fabio Vieira, having also thrown on Nketiah at the break.
From that point onwards, we looked much more menacing in attack with Odegaard twice twisting and turning in trademark fashion to get shots away but without causing Leno too many difficulties as we ramped up the pressure.
And midway through the second half, Fulham finally cracked as we netted two goals in two minutes. Martinelli trickled a pass through for Vieira to run onto inside the box, and he was felled by a sliding tackle by Kenny Tete to hand us the chance to equalise from 12 yards. Unlike at Crystal Palace on Monday night, Saka opted to take it and despite a long delay, he kept his cool to send Leno the wrong way.
Moments later, things got even better when Odegaard won the ball back high up the pitch and Saka produced a delicious pass out to Vieira, whose inch-perfect centre was tucked home by Nketiah to elicit a roar from the Emirates Stadium crowd louder than the thunder clapping around north London.
As the visitors attempted to respond, their efforts were made harder on 84 minutes when Bassey was sent off for a second bookable offence after blocking off Nketiah as we attempted to counter, but three minutes later they managed to pull level again.
After winning a corner, the 10 men regrouped and Harrison Reed’s delivery found Palhinha in space, and he struck the ball past the despairing dive of Ramsdale to equalise against the odds.
Nine minutes of stoppage-time were added but the hosts nearly snatched it when Adama Traore raced through to go one-on-one with Ramsdale but our shot-stopper stayed big and managed to block the effort to deny Fulham their first-ever away win at our expense.
And in the final seconds, Leno had to tip over a fierce Vieira shot from the edge of the area to ensure a pulsating game ended level.

We had one of the, if not, THE best CB pairing in the PL last season. This season, for some odd reason, we've tried 3 different backlines so far and the performances have all been shaky despite a relatively "easy" start to the season. The fans need more clarity on why Gabriel is not starting. The PL is not the place for rotations, if he needs a rest, give him a break during fa cup and CL group games, NOT the PL. I love arteta, but he's overdoing things right now.

Look at what happened to Liverpool after losing the title on the last day. The Premier League no longer respects teams with big names, or past achievements. Every team will play you as if they can get a result. And if you're not careful, you could go from Champions League to 12th place, or losing the title on the last day to Europa League.

Class performance from Fabio today. Sucks to not get 3 points. We move

[@adriantoo4796]

I like it when Arsenal always stop pressing when they have just won 1 goal. keeping pressing for 1 or 2 more goals is always the last option. the first option is to defense and waste time.

[@ultraslanmc]

I feel like if we won this game 2-1 people would rightfully say “Oh incredible comeback once again, oh what a mentality”. But just because we conceded at the end doesn’t mean we didn’t become way better in the second Half, all thanks to Arteta’s subs: Zinchenko, Nketiah and Fabio. Zinchenko was world class offensively, absolute game changer, Fabio just incredible really happy for him. Nketiah amazing with a goal once again. I didn’t recognize my club in the first half but i’m proud of that second half even tho we conceded a late goal. If we stop these stupid individual mistakes in the first half we will be unstoppable. I beg Arteta to start Zinny (he didn’t start today bc he didn’t want him to play 90 just after an injury) Partey and Rice in the midfield. And Nketiah would be good, but jesus would be ok too

[@claudewacu]

Those subs you're talking should've started and the big problem is Partey as RB we don't hate KAI but he don't deserve to start yes his time will come but not now just because Arteta want him to be on the pitch he's forcing Partey on RB Honestly we have the best midfield in the league PARTEY - RICE & ODEGAARD but The boss is tinkering

[@wisepalaz]

2-1 is never good enough against Fulham at home. I expect minimum 3-0.

[@curtismudi]

​@@wisepalazin your mind Fulham is a small team.?? Well, watch games in the Premier league and not just arsenal.

[@waylander966]

Aaron,that classic 😢

[@JabuMcNtuli]

I always admired Fabio's technicality, crossing and passing...he's doing what Granit did, with more confidence.

[@jaysenossai7165]

Viera more confident that Xhaka, joke of the day?

[@olmasfootballchannel7889]

Sure! I wished we won the match, he would have been the MOTM, but Arteta's sentiment won't let him play Viera. Pathetic coach.

[@Mos41f]

Just keep following Partey's positioning when we concede our 1st goal and you'll realise what is wrong with Arteta's nonsense inverted tactics. Pause at 0:10 and you'll notice huge gaps for both Pereira and Jiminez to exploit.

[@obinnaobiekwe4910]

As time goes on, we Arsenal fans would realise how we won't win even the Carabao with this squad. It's crazy!

[@eliudwahome4425]

[@chrisayodele4134]

arteta should just stop the experiments and we are good to go... Havertz should earn his spot on the team like viera no freebies for him

[@tgchinzou]

Arteta please, you faired well last season with simple, authentic, passionate, and artistic flair. Why change, if it ain't broke why fix it

[@kcjabari.1146]

The once genius Arteta could all well start playing Saliba as some kinda inverted striker or one of this new crazy tactics! Keep it simple and effective man!!! Goddamn

[@augustineattisu5021]

Partey must be mindful that he's RB more than midfield and stay there more. He left too early..

[@mikaheelyusufolamide2141]

The more arteta keeps forcing havertz into the starting 11 the more arsenal keeps loosing

[@gachaeater7984]

Havertz in the starting lineup is literally 10 men in the starting lineup

Arsenal subbed off Havertz and they scored 2-1 They subbed Jorginho on and Fulham scored 2-2 Once a blue…....😂😂😂

this just gives indications that he is really going to real madrid, because there is no reason for him to be a bench, a very important player
