In a dramatic Premier League match, Arsenal suffered a narrow 2-3 defeat at home to Manchester United, ending their proud home unbeaten record.

Arsenal started strong and took the lead in the first 30 minutes of the match. Although they were overtaken by Manchester United, the team's resilience allowed them to fight back and equalize the score in the final stages of the game.

However, just when fans thought the game was over, Manchester United player Matheus Cunha scored with a long-range shot from outside the penalty area, ruthlessly ending the suspense and securing the victory.

This was Arsenal's third defeat in 35 matches across all competitions this season. After the game, key player Bukayo Saka could not hide his disappointment. In an interview, he admitted that failing to maintain a high level of performance throughout the match was the main reason for the loss.

“This was a high-profile match, and we all know what the Emirates Stadium means to us this season,” Saka said. “I think it was very frustrating that we didn’t play our best throughout the game. It was a hard-fought defeat, but at times like these, we have to be more united.”

Saka emphasized that the key to a football match is not just scoring or conceding goals, but also the subsequent reactions. Saka said, "Obviously, we hoped to extend our lead to 2-0 and secure the victory, but we failed. Overall, everyone is not satisfied with today's performance."

"That's football. The journey isn't always smooth sailing; ups and downs are inevitable. We can't change what has already happened, and now the focus is all on next week. Whether we can bounce back from adversity depends entirely on how we show our character and fighting spirit."
