EPL: Kai Havertz on target as Gunners thrash Brighton 2-0 at Emirates Stadium
Mikel Arteta marked his return to the Arsenal dugout in a commanding 2-0 victory against Brighton, courtesy of Kai Havertz late strike.
The Arsenal boss who was absent in the previous 1-0 defeat to Aston Villa, having accumulated three yellow cards, wasted no time getting back in the referee’s notebook again.

Recall Arteta’s yellow card tally includes cautions for protesting during draws against Fulham and Chelsea and an over-celebration incident during the match against Luton.
Meanwhile, the Seagulls faced Arteta’s frustration as he protested multiple fouls on Bukayo Saka, with no corresponding bookings for Brighton players.
However, Arsenal found their breakthrough in the second half, with Gabriel Jesus heading home from a corner.
The match remained heavily one-sided, and Kai Havertz secured the victory by slotting into the bottom corner in the 87th minute, marking his fifth goal of the campaign.
