Arsenal’s dominance in the English Premier League continued as they thrashed Chelsea 5-0 in a one-sided encounter at the Emirates Stadium. The Gunners, who are vying for the league title, extended their lead at the top of the table, while Chelsea’s hopes of a top-four finish suffered a major setback.
Arsenal’s relentless attack began early, with Leandro Trossard scoring in the 5th minute after Chelsea’s defense failed to contain him. Despite Chelsea’s attempts to level the score, Arsenal remained in control, with Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard creating numerous chances.
Chelsea’s defense proved vulnerable throughout the match, allowing Arsenal to score three more goals in quick succession. Ben White scored in the 52nd minute, followed by Kai Havertz in the 57th minute. Saka added another goal in the 62nd minute, and White completed the rout in the 70th minute.
Chelsea’s attack, led by Joao Felix and Raheem Sterling, failed to make an impact, with only one shot on target throughout the match. Arsenal, on the other hand, had nine shots on target, highlighting their superiority in both attack and defense.
The victory sends a clear message to Manchester City and Liverpool, Arsenal’s main title rivals, that they are determined to lift the trophy this season. Chelsea, meanwhile, must regroup and focus on securing a Europa League spot.
