PREMIER LEAGUE :- CALAFIORI HEADER SEES ARSENAL EDGE PAST IMPROVED MAN UTD IN OPENER
Riccardo Calafiori’s header saw Arsenal edge to a 1-0 win against Manchester United in their Premier League opener, despite Ruben Amorim’s side looking much-improved going forward.
The Old Trafford side had splashed out on three attacking players this summer – Matheus Cuhna, Bryan Mbeumo and Benjamin Sesko – who all made their Man Utd debuts on Super Sunday.
But the game was ultimately decided on a goalkeeping error. Altay Bayindir – deputising for the absent Andre Onana – failed to deal with Declan Rice’s corner, allowing Calafiori to nod home inside 13 minutes.
