Gunners’ Saka lifts the stadium, says ‘happy’ Arteta
Cape Argus
|April 03, 2025
BUKAYO Saka marked his return from a lengthy injury reserve with a goal as Arsenal beat Fulham 2-1 on Tuesday to cut the gap on Premier League leaders Liverpool to nine points.
-
Saka came off the bench to head in on his first appearance since December 21, after Mikel Merino’s deflected effort had given Arsenal a first-half lead.
However, victory came at a cost, as key defender Gabriel Magalhaes limped off injured.
“It was a good opportunity to see how much people love him and missed him,” said Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta on Saka’s ovation before he even stepped foot on the field. The reception he got was magnificent. He lifts the stadium and I am so happy for him because he fully deserves it.”
Rodrigo Muniz pulled a goal back in stoppage time, but defeat is a blow to Fulham’s ambitions of European football next season.
The Cottagers remain in eighth, three points outside a top-five finish that would almost certainly secure Champions League football next season. Just one week away from the Gunners Champions League quarter-final, first leg against Real Madrid, the sight of Gabriel pulling up with a hamstring problem added to a tough 10 days.
