Gabriel Jesus

It was Arsenal's second straight win without Saka, who is likely to be sidelined until at least March. The England winger tore his right hamstring in a 5-1 win over Crystal Palace on Dec. 21. Arsenal extended its unbeaten streak to 12 games in all competitions.

The Gunners moved to the second spot on the Premier League 2024-25 points table and reduced their gap with leaders Liverpool. Gabriel Jesus, who has been in good form in the past few matches, continued the good work as Arsenal bagged three crucial points.

United’s early momentum halted when Aresenal capitalised by getting back to level on 26 minutes. Trossard fed Nwaneri on the edge of the area, who sent a pinpoint pass towards the back post where Jesus showed his predatory instinct to be ideally placed to tap past a helpless Andre Onana.

Gabriel Jesus has been criticized by some for not being the clinical finisher Arsenal might need to end its 20-year wait for a Premier League title. The Brazil striker was enduring another frustrating match, heading over in the first half and smashing a shot against the post just after the restart, before being the inspiration behind the win.

This is Arsenal's second consecutive victory after their three-match winless streak which has caused them to chase Liverpool who went ahead in the Premier League table.

Arsenal had 15 shots to zero for Brighton in the first half alone but the breakthrough didn't come until the 53rd. Brighton defender Jan Paul van Hecke attempted to head clear a corner from Saka but the ball only found Gabriel Jesus, who was on hand to head it back into an empty net.

The Brazil striker's match ended when he hobbled off with a hamstring injury in the 81st minute but he'd done plenty more damage before that at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan Stadium. Jesus seems to save his best scoring form for the Champions League, having netted 23 goals in 41 appearances in Europe's elite club competition.
