Arsenal Dominates Fulham 3-0 to Lead Premier League
Arsenal FC achieved a decisive 3-0 victory against Fulham at the Emirates Stadium, bolstering their title quest in the Premier League. The match saw Bukayo Saka, who made his first start since March due to injury, score a goal and provide an assist.
Arsenal took the lead in the ninth minute when Saka easily beat Raul Jimenez down the right and set up Viktor Gyökeres for a close-range tap-in, marking Gyökeres's 20th goal of the season. Saka then curled a quality low finish past Fulham's goalkeeper Bernd Leno after receiving a slip pass from Gyökeres.
Gyökeres added a second goal by heading home Leandro Trossard's cross in first-half stoppage time. Arsenal's coach Mikel Arteta made five changes to the starting lineup and opted to rest Saka at halftime to focus on their upcoming Champions League semi-final second leg against Atletico Madrid on Tuesday.
Arsenal now leads the Premier League by six points over Manchester City, who have two games in hand.
