Brighton: So, Arsenal went to Brighton and ended up with a 1-1 draw. Joao Pedro scored again, just like he did last time. It’s getting a bit annoying for the Gunners, right?

Ethan Nwaneri kicked things off with a goal in the 16th minute. He was quick on his feet and found the net with a nice low shot. But then, things got a bit wild in the second half.

Arsenal was looking good, but then a penalty changed everything. William Saliba was called for a foul on Joao Pedro, and he didn’t miss his chance from the spot. That tied things up, and Arsenal couldn’t find a way to get back ahead.

Mikel Arteta had some key players on the bench, probably to manage their busy schedule. But even bringing on Martin Odegaard didn’t help. Now, Arsenal is five points behind Liverpool, and they need a little luck from Manchester United to keep their title hopes alive.
