Two shocking Premier League records were birthed as Arsenal ran riot on Sheffield United at Bramall Lane to continue their push for the Premier League title.
Five different goalscorers steamrollered the London club into a 5-0 lead at the break. Martin Odegaard raced the away side into the lead in 5th minute. Bogle scored an own goal in the 13th minute to double the lead.
Gabriel Martinelli extended the lead two minutes later in the 15th minute before Kai Havertz and Declan scored in the 25th and 39th minute, respectively to make it 5-0 before the break.
The Gunners continued the rout in the second half with Ben White adding to the tally in the 58th minute to make it 6-0, compounding the woes of the newly-promoted side.
Arsenal birthed two shocking Premier League records with the win over Sheffield United.
The six-goal haul at Bramall Lane saw the Gunners’ Premier League away goal this season equal Manchester United’s total Premier League tally in the campaign.
The Premier League title hopefuls took their away goal tally this campaign to 38 – the same number of goals Manchester United have managed in both their away and home fixtures this season.
Also, Sheffield United became the first Premier League club to concede 5+ goals in four consecutive home games.
Since losing 5-2 to Brighton at Bramall Lane, the Blades have lost their next three fixtures by 5+ goals. They lost 5-0 to Aston Villa, 5-0 to Brighton again, and now 6-0 to Arsenal.
Following the loss to Arsenal, Sheffield United’s Premier League survival chances is on thin ice. They have won only 3 of their 27 Premier League fixtures, drawing 4, losing 20, and are stuck at the bottom of the table with 13 points.
