Bukayo Saka’s Triumphant Return Propels Arsenal to Victory Despite Gabriel Magalhaes Injury Concern

Arsenal secured a tense 2-1 triumph over Fulham, with Bukayo Saka stealing the spotlight on his first Premier League outing since December. The 23-year-old wasted no time in proving his worth, finding the net just seven minutes after stepping onto the pitch. His goal not only energized the Emirates crowd but also highlighted Arsenal’s strong home record this season, which now stands at 23 goals in their last 10 matches on home turf.

Earlier in the match, Gabriel Magalhaes left fans anxious when he was forced off with an injury, and Jurrien Timber had a close call soon after. However, the Gunners regrouped swiftly and took the lead before halftime, thanks to Ethan Nwaneri’s dazzling run down the right flank. The teenager set up Mikel Merino in the box, whose shot—his sixth league goal of the campaign—took a deflection en route to the back of the net.

In the second half, Gabriel Martinelli tormented Fulham’s defenders, laying the foundation for Arsenal’s attacking surge. Yet it was Saka, returning from injury, who sealed the deal. Martinelli initiated a slick move, sending the ball to Merino, who lifted it into the area for Martinelli to flick on. Saka capped it off with a precise finish, underlining his importance to Mikel Arteta’s side. Fulham nearly created a grandstand finish when Rodrigo Muniz missed a golden header, though he made partial amends in stoppage time with a deflected strike past David Raya. Despite a late onslaught, the visitors could not force an equalizer, ensuring Arsenal stayed firmly among the league’s top contenders.
