Jesus and Saka strike late to end resistance of Forest
THE City Ground has been the stuff of nightmares for Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta.
Two years ago Amazon’s fly-on-the-wall film caught Arteta ripping into his players after Nottingham Forest dumped his side out of the FA Cup.
And it was also where they surrendered the title after a lame defeat last season. This time, though, Arsenal’s victory applied some pressure on leaders Liverpool and breathed life into the club’s challenge.
Gabriel Jesus scored and provided an assist for Bukayo Saka but the visitors had to work hard for the three points and will be grateful for the knack of being the Premier League’s set-piece specialists.
Arsenal have now scored 14 top-flight goals from set-pieces, more than any other team.
