ARS 2-3 MU: Exactly What We Deserved

 The Gunners came out looking as if they thought their victory was inevitable.  United struggled to get out of their half early, but they expected that.  We got another own-goal at 25 minutes, and then came the pivotal play.  Zubimendi, in lots of space, hit a thoughtless pass he probably intended for Raya, but short.  Mbeumo pounced and slotted it in routinely.  Dorgu hit a great shot into the upper right corner and we're down.  In the second half, Merino scrambles one in off a corner, but then Cunha strode into the middle and blasted a beauty inside the right post.  Fair result, and we're just four points up on our pursuers.  

Give United credit for solid defense and for a couple of great goals.  But we were sloppy and I thought a bit arrogant.  We should learn from this.
