On Monday night, Kai Havertz created history when Arsenal defeated Sheffield United 6-0.

At Bramall Lane, the Germany international scored Arsenal’s fourth goal in only twenty-five minutes, giving the Gunners eight goals overall.

Havertz scored a historic goal, but other players like Declan Rice, Martin Odegaard, Gabriel Martinelli, and Ben White were also on target.

Havertz scored the 150,000th goal in the history of the English Premier League with a brilliant finish past Ivo Grbic, according to Sky Sports.

For the former Chelsea forward, who is currently playing consistently after a £65 million summer transfer, reaching this milestone is significant.

After halftime, Arsenal led 5-0. In the 58th minute, White scored a spectacular goal from outside the box to make it six.

And they established club history with yet another thrilling win.

The North London club made history by being the first to score five goals or more in three straight away games in English football history.

In addition, they scored five goals away against Burnley after losing 6-0 at London Stadium, home of West Ham United, the week before.

Against Sheff United, who are currently the only club in the history of the English Football League to give up at least five goals in four straight home games across all competitions, it was inevitably going to happen.

Two times, Brighton scored five against them; nevertheless, at the beginning of February, Aston Villa defeated them 5-0.

Since travelling to Dubai in the middle of the season, Arsenal has been in incredible form, winning their past seven league games in a row.

Since assuming leadership in 2019, Mikel Arteta feels his team is playing at its best.

“I’ve seen a lot of teams struggling against Sheffield United, it’s really difficult to open them up,” he said, as per talkSPORT

“Yet we also demonstrated that positivity and quality right away. We were really effective in small areas and appeared menacing.

“The players, their confidence, their form, their chemistry, and their unwavering dedication in every ball.

“They still think they can become better and they want more because we can all get better at some areas, and that’s something we should keep up.

“Without looking at the numbers it’s probably the best that we’ve been but it has to be at the end of the season and we are focused on that.”
