Arsenal came from behind to defeat Chelsea 2–1 at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday, maintaining their perfect start to the Premier League season.

Chelsea stunned the home crowd inside the opening two minutes when Morgan Rogers fired his side into an early lead. Arsenal, however, responded strongly and gradually took control of the contest.

The Gunners levelled in the 25th minute through Kai Havertz, who produced a composed finish to bring Arsenal back into the game.

Arsenal completed the turnaround five minutes into the second half. Martin Ødegaard found the net in the 50th minute to put Mikel Arteta’s side ahead for the first time.

Chelsea pushed for an equaliser during the closing stages, but Arsenal’s defence held firm, with goalkeeper David Raya making important saves as the visitors searched for a way back into the match.

The victory means Arsenal have now won their opening three Premier League matches, keeping them among the early leaders with a perfect nine points. Chelsea, meanwhile, suffered their first league defeat of the campaign.

The result also extended Arsenal’s unbeaten run against Chelsea to 11 matches, underlining the Gunners’ recent dominance in the London derby.
