Arsenal 3-2 Aston Villa: VAR Awards Kai Havertz’s Late Goal as Disallowed, but Arsenal Secure Three Points

 

 

 

Arsenal’s pursuit of the Premier League title continued as they earned a hard-fought 3-2 victory over Aston Villa at the Emirates Stadium. The Gunners had looked in control with a 2-0 lead, thanks to goals from Gabriel Martinelli and Kai Havertz.

 

 

 

In the first half, Martinelli put Arsenal ahead, and early in the second half, Havertz doubled their lead with a volley. However, Aston Villa quickly fought back. Youri Tielemans scored a header just minutes after Havertz’s goal, reducing the deficit to 2-1. Ollie Watkins then took advantage of a mistake by Arsenal’s Thomas Partey, scoring an equalizer to make it 2-2.

 

 

 

In a dramatic late moment, Arsenal thought they had won the game when a shot from Mikel Merino deflected off Havertz and into the net. However, after reviewing the play, VAR ruled out the goal due to a handball by Havertz. Frustration grew when Merino hit the post in the final moments, and Leandro Trossard’s rebound was saved by Villa’s goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez.

 

 

 

Despite a strong push from Arsenal during seven minutes of added time, Villa held on for a valuable point. The result leaves Arsenal six points behind Liverpool in the race for the title, with one more game played than their rivals.
