Arsenal are making a habit of this. A 2-0 win over Sunderland on September 12 stretched the Gunners’ unbeaten run to six consecutive Premier League victories, announcing loudly that last season’s title winners have no intention of being a one-year story.
Bruno Guimarães opened the scoring with a long-range effort, his first goal in Arsenal colors. Bukayo Saka added the second. David Raya, quiet for long stretches, made the kind of save that tilts a match when it matters most, stopping a Sunderland penalty before Guimarães turned the resulting momentum into a goal.
How it unfolded
Guimarães collected the opportunity the save created and buried it. It was his first goal in four appearances for the club since his summer arrival.
Saka put the result beyond doubt with the second.
