Arsène Wenger’s 1000th match in charge of Arsenal, which unfortunately turned into a nightmare for the team. Here’s a summary of the match:
- Chelsea got off to a strong start, with Samuel Eto’o scoring the opening goal just five minutes into the match with a superb left-footed shot.
- Two minutes later, André Schürrle doubled Chelsea’s lead with a low shot from the edge of the area.
- In the 18th minute, Eden Hazard extended Chelsea’s lead to 3-0 from the penalty spot after a handball by Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain in the Arsenal penalty area.
- Just before halftime, Oscar scored Chelsea’s fourth goal after a well-worked team move involving Fernando Torres.
- Despite being reduced to 10 men, Arsenal conceded two more goals in the second half. Oscar completed his brace with a long-range shot that was poorly dealt with by the Arsenal goalkeeper in the 66th minute, and Mohamed Salah scored his first Premier League goal after capitalizing on another defensive error in the 71st minute.
- With this 6-0 defeat, Chelsea maintained their lead in the Premier League and extended their advantage over Arsenal to 7 points.
