On January 3, 2026, Arsenal emerged victorious with a 3-2 win against AFC Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium, extending their lead at the top of the Premier League table.
The match began with Bournemouth taking an early lead in the 10th minute through Evanilson, who capitalized on a defensive error by Arsenal's Gabriel Magalhães. However, Gabriel quickly redeemed himself, equalizing just six minutes later with a powerful finish following a scramble in the penalty area.
The score remained level at halftime, but Arsenal asserted dominance in the second half. Midfielder Declan Rice proved instrumental, scoring twice—first in the 54th minute and again in the 71st—to put the visitors ahead 3-1.
Bournemouth mounted a late comeback when substitute Eli Junior Kroupi scored a stunning long-range effort in the 76th minute, reducing the deficit to one goal and setting up a tense finish. Despite sustained pressure from the hosts, Arsenal held firm to secure the three points, marking their fifth consecutive Premier League win.
