Havertz's 89th-Minute Header Propels Arsenal to Top of Premier League
Kai Havertz's dramatic 89th-minute goal at the Gtech Community Stadium propelled Arsenal to a 1-0 victory over Brentford, propelling them to the summit of the Premier League.
Arsenal's surge to first place comes after they overtook Manchester City and Liverpool, who drew 1-1 in the earlier lunchtime kick-off.
Throughout the game, Arsenal dominated the chances and appeared to have secured a goal at the end of the first half. However, a VAR review disallowed Leandro Trossard's effort due to a marginal offside from Gabriel Jesus' saved header.
In a thrilling turn of events, Kai Havertz, introduced as a late substitute, connected with a Bukayo Saka cross to secure the decisive goal with a close-range header.
This hard-fought victory will bolster Arsenal as they head into their upcoming UEFA Champions League group stage clash midweek.
