Brilliant Bournemouth hand Arsenal title race blow

Arsenal’s Premier League title ambitions suffered a significant setback on Sunday as in-form Bournemouth left the Emirates Stadium with a dramatic 2-1 victory. The visitors struck first when Junior Kroupi rifled the Cherries ahead, capitalising on a rapid counter to silence the home crowd. Arsenal responded after the restart through Viktor Gyokeres, who converted confidently from the penalty spot to level the contest. Yet Bournemouth, riding a wave of recent momentum, refused to settle for a point and found a late winner to seal a memorable triumph. The result leaves the Gunners with little margin for error in the championship chase, while Bournemouth’s surge up the table gathers further pace.
