With a come-from-behind 3-2 victory over Bournemouth, Declan Rice overcame a knee injury to increase Arsenal’s lead at the top of the Premier League to six points.

Evanilson scored the Cherries’ opening goal on Saturday thanks to a improbable Gabriel Magalhaes error, but the Brazilian quickly recovered.

With the opening goal, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta said, “We made it harder for ourselves.” However, I adore Gabi’s character and the team’s character, which have evolved over the years.

Due to knee swelling, Rice was doubtful after missing Tuesday’s 4-1 defeat to Aston Villa.

The England international made two composed starts before the hour mark, helping him double his season total.

Bournemouth hoped thanks to Eli Kroupi’s excellent strike, but Arsenal comfortably escaped defeat at Manchester City, who host managerless Chelsea in their match on Sunday.

When Arsenal conceded after just 10 minutes, Pep Guardiola’s men had a glimmer of hope.

Jurrien Timber and Gabriel mishit their cross-field passes to Gabriel, who then slotted past Evanilson for his season opener.

In midweek’s match against Villa, the towering centre-back from Arsenal scored again with a strong effort and scored just six minutes in the equalizer.

Noni Madueke’s deflected cross was saved by Gabriel, who scored his 20th Premier League goal since joining the Gunners in 2020, seven more than any other defender.

Since being promoted to a more advanced role this year, Rice has also become a valuable source of important goals.

Martin Odegaard had a perfect pick-up, and he slotted in from the edge of the box to give the visitors a 56-minute lead.

As Rice drew his cut-back, Bukayo Saka created Arsenal’s third as he came off the bench.

We knew it wasn’t going to be simple, Rice said in response to the attacking threat they posed.

“To get three points from us after not getting the best of our first half means a big win,” he said.

The key is to maintain momentum with three points.

Bournemouth is still without a victory after 11 games ended on October 26.

Only five teams have this season scored more Premier League goals than Andoni Iraola’s men, though.

A nervy conclusion was created by Kropi’s stunning long-range strike.

But Mikel Arteta’s men persevered to make yet another significant breakthrough in the pursuit of a Premier League title after 22 years.

West Ham was “embarked” at Wolves while Villa defeated Forest.

Aston Villa moved into second place in the Premier League after beating struggling Nottingham Forest 3-1 at their home fortress to lessen the pain caused by Arsenal’s midweek mauling.

Unai Emery’s side took a deserved lead with Ollie Watkins’ strike just before half-time, and John McGinn scored twice for the visitors on either side of a Morgan Gibbs-White goal.

With a 4-1 defeat at the Emirates Stadium on Tuesday, Villa’s 11-game winning streak came to an abrupt halt, giving doubts about their ability to keep the title in check.

However, they still have a strong track record at Villa Park, winning 11 of their previous games with a 3-0 defeat to Crystal Palace in August.

After their humiliating defeat at Arsenal, Villa boss Emery revealed to Sky Sports that his players and coaching staff had met.

He said, “I’m so happy,” “I’m so happy.” Our confidence and energy had to be regained. The energy we produce here at Villa Park was extremely important.

Forests compete with one another. We discussed our current situation with the players and staff after the Arsenal game, including how we are faring this season, how we are feeling, how we must maintain consistency, and how to work together and be strong.

On a bitingly cold day in Birmingham, Villa made a positive start, but the team struggled to make their dominance felt.

However, in the final moments of a half, when they had nearly 80% of the lead, the in-form Watkins broke the deadlock.

Morgan Rogers’ kick was fired in the England international’s fourth goal in three games when he received the ball outside the area.

In the 49th minute, McGinn side-footed home from a Matty Cash cross to double Villa’s lead.

Villa appeared to be moving in the opposite direction, but in the 61st minute, Forest were back in the lead thanks to a superb finish from Gibbs-White, who skidded past Emi Martinez before the diving Villa.

Even though there were defenders nearby, Forest goalkeeper John Victor inexplicably vacated his goalmouth in the 73rd minute to try to get a long ball from Youri Tielemans in the area.

Scotland midfielder McGinn stepped over Victor and strode the ball into the empty net from far outside the area while remaining calm.

Villa improved to 42 points, one point ahead of Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City, who host Chelsea without a manager on Sunday.

Forest, who have now lost to League One for the fourth consecutive season, are one place above West Ham, who lost 3-0 to bottom-of-the-table Wolves.

Nuno Espirito Santo, the manager of the struggling Hammers, said: “This is not what we want to show. The first half was embarrassing.

Trump, the president of the US, announced that “a team” from the US would currently be in charge of Venezuela, but he wouldn’t say who would join. At a press conference, he joined Marco Rubio, the secretary of state, and Pete Hegseth, the defense secretary.

Nicolas Maduro and his wife will “face American justice,” according to US President Donald Trump, who claims they “successfully captured” them in the middle of nowhere. Trump asserted that the US would continue to rule Venezuela until a “safe… and prudent” transition of power is achieved.
