Jack Wilshere’s young Gunners secured their second consecutive London derby victory to kick off the league season, edging out rivals Chelsea 1-0 on Saturday morning.
The decisive moment came just before halftime when Dan Casey found the net, ensuring a hard-fought win for our side.
The game began with Chelsea on the front foot, nearly taking an early lead when Shim Mheuka's shot went narrowly wide. Moments later, we countered, with Theo Julienne’s header forcing a fine save from Chelsea keeper Jack Austin.
The match took a dramatic turn just 14 minutes in when Chelsea were reduced to 10 men.
