In Arsenal’s Premier League clash against Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium today, November 25, Kai Havertz emerged as an unexpected hero.
Despite struggling to establish himself in Mikel Arteta’s lineup since his transfer from Chelsea last summer, Havertz, introduced as a 79th-minute substitute for Gabriel Martinelli, made a decisive impact in the 88th minute.
His late goal salvaged a win for Arsenal, putting them one point ahead of Manchester City and Liverpool in the league standings.
The victory marked a notable moment in Arteta’s 200th game in charge, overshadowing Aaron Ramsdale’s clean-sheet performance and returning Arsenal to the top of the table with 30 points in 13 matches.
