Return of
the PL
Arsenal began their attempt to go one better in the Premier League title race this season with a 1-0 win over Manchester United at Old Trafford thanks to a ‘new’ set-piece routine.
Avram Glazer was in attendance at Old Trafford and saw the team he co-owns line up without fit-again goalkeeper Andre Onana and striker Rasmus Hojlund, who The Athletic revealed has been told he faces a challenge to get minutes under Amorim. For Arsenal, 15-year-old midfielder Max Dowman travelled with the team but was not in the matchday squad.
Amorim chose Altay Bayindir to start in goal but he was powerless to stop Riccardo Calafiori heading in Declan Rice’s corner on 13 minutes. United responded well and Patrick Dorgu hit a post before David Raya saved superbly low down with his fingertips to deny Matheus Cunha.
