(Premier League 2023/2024): Highlights Nottingham Forest - Arsenal

So what we need is either that incisive pass. This could be it though. Smith-Rowe could be in here. Deflects off just over the top. It was a sweeping Gunners move but just over the bar. Zeus very congested. Smith-Rowe made room for the shot. Good effort. Turned away sharply and it's worth a go. Yeah again it's good link-up play. I think Bent White's been excellent in that right back position. Now Forrest with Danilo coming forward. To have it covered. That's the first time Danilo's got into Arsenal territory. Marsinelli again. Saka. Sinchenko fires one in. Martin Forrest. Saka's in. Here is he. Deflects wide. Is that man in the way again? Murillo. Yeah really good play. Quick passing. Sinchenko into Emil Smith-Rowe. Just back to Mikao Saka. So he just comes in. Smith-Rowe. Nice little touch from Mikao Saka. Murillo just gets that block in front of Matt Turner. Intervention but now Udagar opens up for him. Looking to feed. Saka who shoots. Deflects Turner with a really good strong right hand there. Denies Mikao Saka. Arsenal a little bit more incisive with the passing. White. Good balling feel. Here's Saka. Nice link-up with Martin Udagar. Lovely. Jesus is in. It's a terrific move. Played in. A little clearance. Saka gets his head to the ball. Jesus that's clever. Jesus. Really good build-up play by him but the finish was lacking. Yeah he's got to make sure as the ball drops down he gets his knee over the top of the ball. Really clever play the way that we've recycled it from Mikao Saka into Jesus. Brilliant little flick over Danilo. Here come the Gunners again. Jesus in a dangerous position. Scores! He's found a way through Jesus and this time he gets an opportunity. Absolutely fantastic play from Gabriel Jesus. He spread it through Ivan Edel. He probably threaded it through Matt Turner's legs if he gets a replay. Celebrating in front of the delirious Arsenal fans. To be fair to Jesus you can never doubt his character. He's missed a chance where he hit the post. He should have scored. Really good play. Quick throw in. Taken by us. Just releasing Gabriel Jesus down that left-hand side. It's a mistake by Noni and Fores. There's a break on now. Wundergaard finds Jesus. Arsenal have got four on two. Jesus plays it into Mikao Saka and scores! Slots it in and Arsenal have doubled their lead. Brilliant incisive goal on the counter-attack. Every player made the right decision when the ball came out to Gabriel Jesus. Whoever he could pick the right pass. Exactly what he does. Just rolls it into Mikao Saka and Mikao Saka just lets it roll across his body. Trossard cuts inside a couple of challenges. Still going Leandro Trossard. Great feet. Oh that's a great effort from him. Really good play by Leandro Trossard. Leandro Trossard he's got such clean feet. You could eat your dinner off of him just coming in from that left-hand side. Ball headed in. He's opened up for him and he scores! The Gunners and they do have a lifeline. Yeah we just lost concentration as the ball comes in from the right-hand side. That's exactly what we didn't want to give Nottingham Forest a leg up. That will be obviously checked. Become edgy. Porter comes in. Raya gets a good hand to it. Gives wide. Drills it back in. Forest piling the pressure on and it's a comfortable save at the end from Aronye from Raya. Thank goodness it was a comfortable height. Aronye looked like he was going to volley it in the top right-hand corner. In the end it just nestled safely into the hands of David Raya. Just a little bit of panic. The Gunners are holding firm. Trossard does well. Links with Jorginho. Now needs to take the ball away which he's doing. Gives wide. Trying to stay with him. Trossard's done well though to turn away from his man. That's good play by Trossard. Excellent play from Leandro Trossard and Jorginho. Just a calvary from Nottingham Forest to make sure we defended the 18-yard box. They've done it. It got a bit edgy at the end but Arsenal have got the three points. Back-to-back wins. They keep the pressure up on Liverpool and Manchester City with a really big three points here. Gabriel Jesus scoring the first after the quick throw-in by Zinchenko. Jesus rewarded for perseverance. But Kaio Saka with the second goal proved to be a crucial second goal after a swift counter. Nottingham Forest got one back through their substitute Lewandowski after Arsenal had switched off at the back. They held firm at the end. They get the three points. It's finished here at the city ground. Nottingham Forest 1, Arsenal 2.
