Arsenal showcased their resilience with a 2-1 comeback victory over Leeds United at the Emirates Stadium, following a disappointing 3-0 loss to Brighton before the international break.

The match began with Leeds dominating, taking a deserved lead through James Justin, who scored just 10 minutes after halftime. David Raya made several crucial saves, but Leeds' persistent pressure paid off.

Arsenal's fortunes changed when Leeds goalkeeper James Trafford failed to stop a shot from Riccardo Calafiori, leveling the score just seven minutes after Leeds' opener. Manager Mikel Arteta, dissatisfied with his team's performance, made a triple substitution that included Bruno Guimaraes, who scored the winning goal just five minutes later. Martin Odegaard provided a brilliant assist, setting up Guimaraes to fire the ball into the bottom corner.

The match saw key moments including:

• 8': Noah Okafor nearly scored from a cleared corner.
• 21': Kai Havertz missed a big chance with a header.
• 55': Justin scored for Leeds.
• 62': Calafiori equalized for Arsenal.
• 70': Guimaraes scored the decisive goal.
• 90+5': Bukayo Saka missed a late chance to extend the lead.

This victory propelled Arsenal level on points with Manchester City, who are set to face Liverpool at Anfield next. Arteta's new contract until 2030 adds a positive note to the week, as his tactical decisions proved pivotal in the comeback.
