Overview
- The Sweden striker ended his Premier League drought with a 14th‑minute header, turning in Gabriel Magalhaes’ flick from a Declan Rice corner.
- The goal extended Arsenal’s set‑piece trend, with eight corner goals in their first 10 league matches this season, according to Squawka.
- Gyokeres impressed before the break with 17 touches, three key passes and two big chances created, then was replaced at half‑time.
- Arteta said Gyokeres "felt something muscular" and will be assessed ahead of upcoming trips to Slavia Prague and Sunderland.
- Mikel Merino filled in up front after the interval as observers noted a drop in attacking control, with striker options already thinned by injuries to Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus.
