Arsenal conquers the Premier League: 3-0 win against Nottingham!

Arsenal scored an impressive 3-0 win against Nottingham Forest at the Emirates Stadium on September 13, 2025. This victory catapults the team to the top of the Premier League for the time being, after Arsenal previously lost to Liverpool. With this third win in four games, coach Mikel Arteta's team shows an impressive response to the defeat against the Reds.

Martin Zubimendi was the shining hero of the game, scoring two goals: the first in the 32nd minute with a magnificent volley from the edge of the penalty area into the top corner and the second with just under ten minutes to go when he scored with a header in the 79th minute following an assist from Leandro Trossard. Viktor Gyökeres, who was also signed in the summer transfer window, scored in the 46th minute to make it 2-0.

Injuries and changes

A downer for Arsenal was the injury to captain Martin Odegaard, who had to be substituted in the 18th minute due to shoulder problems. His replacement, Ethan Nwaneri, took his position. Arsenal also had several other changes, including Noni Madueke bringing on Gabriel Martinelli and Declan Rice also coming on for Gyökeres.

For Nottingham, Neco Williams picked up a yellow card, while Arsenal's Riccardo Calafiori was also booked. Nottingham also made several substitutions, including Ibrahim Sangare and Murillo due to injury.

Further developments in the league

There were some moving results in other Premier League games. Chelsea missed out on reaching the top of the league with a 2-2 draw against Brentford. Brentford took the lead in the 35th minute through Kevin Schade. Chelsea were able to turn the game around with goals from Cole Palmer (61st minute) and Moises Caicedo (85th minute), but Fabio Carvalho equalized for Brentford in the 93rd minute.

With these results, Chelsea are now one point behind Arsenal, who sit at the top of the table alongside Tottenham, Liverpool and Bournemouth. Crystal Palace also drew against Sunderland and remained unbeaten in the season, while Newcastle celebrated a narrow 1-0 win against Wolverhampton with a goal from Nick Woltemade, who was signed for 90 million euros.

The coming games promise to be crucial in this exciting Premier League season. Arsenal can rely on their strong squad, which has been replenished with new signings and talented players such as Zubimendi and Gyökeres, underlining the club's Champions League ambitions.
