Havertz scores last-gasp goal against Brentford
Arsenal 2-1 Brentford
by Layth Yousif
at Ashburton Grove
A LAST-GASP header by Kai Havertz was enough to beat battling Brentford, and maintain Arsenal’s Premier League title credentials on a dramatic evening at the Emirates.
The midfielder’s late goal was enough to send the home support into raptures after a pulsating match looked to be heading for a draw — a result that would have been damaging to Mikel Arteta’s side’s hopes of maintaining their challenge for the title.
That was until Havertz seized onto Ben White’s 86th-minute cross to grab his fourth goal in as many games, as the Gunners sealed a vital 2-1 victory over Thomas Frank’s side — to make it eight league wins on the bounce in 2024 in front of a fevered crowd Saturday night crowd in north London.
