Arsenal’s flawless start to their Premier League title defence came to an abrupt end on Saturday, as the Gunners suffered a heavy 3-0 defeat at the hands of Brighton.
The match marked a significant low point for the visitors, who were breached by Pascal Gross, Charalampos Kostoulas, and Chema Andres. These three goals dismantled what is typically considered Arsenal’s impenetrable defense.
The result is particularly notable for its historical context, as it represents the first time in over three years that Arsenal has lost a match by a margin of three goals.
Brighton’s performance effectively ended Arsenal’s perfect run in the league, highlighting a rare defensive vulnerability for the title contenders.
