That night, Manchester United were beaten at home by promoted Masi Bromwich Albion, and they finally had no choice but to draw 2-2 with their opponents.

The gap between the Red Devils and Arsenal is getting wider.

The next afternoon, another piece of good news came as Chelsea drew a goalless draw away from Villa!

Arsenal are as many as eight points ahead of Chelsea.

In the title winning group, Manchester City beat Blackpool 3-2 away to level them with Chelsea!

Europe is once again enjoying a double week of fixtures, and the Champions League is back in action in midweek.

Some media believe that the real test for Arsenal is coming, and they have two big games to play in the next four days.

One was at home to Shakhtar Donetsk in the Champions League, and the Ukrainian giants were the biggest rivals in the group, having also won two in a row in the first two rounds.

It will be a direct clash between the top two teams in the group.

After this game, Arsenal will travel to Manchester City away!

That game will determine whether Arsenal can equal, their own record of 49 Premier League unbeaten games!

A defeat at Manchester City would cost them the chance to set a new unbeaten record.

Two big games are coming, and Arsenal fans are both excited and nervous.

There is no such tension at the Arsenal training ground, and they have already won 10 in a row in all competitions for the new season!

The biggest change from the winning streak is that the players have a lot of confidence.

With one less player to beat Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, can't the Manchester City football stadium be crossed?

As for the match against the Ukrainian powerhouse at home...... The Emirates Stadium is the home of the Devils.

Is it difficult to defeat them here?

This self-confidence of the Arsenal players is directly reflected in the interviews with reporters.

Van Persie said: "No matter who the opponent is, we only have one goal now, which is to beat them! ”

Cesc Fabregas said: 'We're in very good shape, we don't have injuries, we have a full squad and these two games aren't a big test for us. ”

The Spaniard certainly did not expect that his words would cause him a lot of trouble, and since then he has become very low-key in front of the media and no longer makes bold statements easily.

At eight o'clock in the evening of the 20th, at the Emirates Stadium, the match between Arsenal and Donetsk officially began.

Perhaps for the Premier League game in four days' time, the Dutch pair sat on the bench.

After the start of the game, Arsenal took advantage of the home advantage and launched an attack on the opponent.

The Ukrainian powerhouse put on a defensive counter-attack posture and focused most of their energy on defense.

Without Van Persie as the center of the frontcourt, Arsenal's frontcourt operation has lost its former ease; Without Chen Fan's sharp breakthrough, Arsenal could not tear apart the opponent's defense at all by relying on cooperation.

In the first half hour of the game, Arsenal had just three shots on goal, which was a record for Arsenal this season.

After witnessing the attack being blocked again and again, Cesc Fabregas took the football to the opponent's penalty area in the 37th minute of the first half!

The Spaniard broke through two players in a row and was about to enter the opponent's penalty area!

Donetsk absentee midfielder Lodigus made a flying tackle and kicked his right foot the Spaniard's left ankle!

The Spaniard let out a scream and fell on the turf.

The referee's face to Lodigus is a red card!

There was chaos on the pitch, with multiple players involved in the clashes.

Cesc Fabregas was eventually lifted off the pitch and subsequently taken to hospital......

The next day, Arsenal officially announced that the Spaniard needed at least six weeks of rest due to an ankle injury!

The foul made the court full of gunpowder, and in the next few minutes of the first half, players on both sides transformed into boxers and wrestlers......

In just a few minutes, the referee issued four yellow cards in a row!

The two sides ended the first half with a score of 0-0.

After a fifteen-minute half-time break, players from both sides returned to the pitch for the second half of the showdown.

Arsenal regained their composure after Arsene Wenger's half-time adjustments, but Donetsk continued to be wrestlers despite absenteeism.

In the ninth minute of the second half, full-back Bogdan? Butko received a second yellow card and was sent off!

Bogdan away from home? Butko was reduced to nine men, and Arsene Wenger immediately made a change, bringing on both Dutch twins.

This substitution signal tells the world that Arsenal will launch a wild attack!

There was thunderous applause at the Emirates Stadium, the first half was too dull, and they were hoping that the two men would break the deadlock and set off a scoring frenzy.

Chen Fan almost pierced the opponent's goal with his first touch, and his shot from the left side of the penalty area flew off the bottom line by grazing the post.

In the twenty-seventh minute of the second half, Arsenal finally broke the deadlock on the field, Song kicked the ball over the top and hit behind him, Van Persie, who was standing in an offside position, did not move, and Chen Fan flew forward from behind him!

Without waiting for the football to land, Chen Fan half-sideways was a push!

The football flew in front of the palm of the Donetsk absentee goalkeeper and flew into the net!

1 to 0!

The goal broke down Donetsk's psychological defence, and two minutes later, Arsenal made a comeback, Chen Fan broke down the flank and crossed into the box.

Van Persie leaned on the opposing defender and pushed the shot!

Football hits the net!

Two to zero!

The Dutch duo scored in quick succession, with Robin van Persie extending the lead.

After the restart, Arsenal used the front press and quickly tackled the ball and launched a blitzkrieg.

Arshavin sent in a cross from the wing, the opposing defender cleared the ball out of the box, and Diaby stopped the ball outside the box and fired a blast!

Soccer balls are like cannonballs into the net!

Three to zero!

It took Arsenal three goals in just three minutes to turn the Emirates Stadium into a sea of joy.

After falling behind by a large score, Donetsk's absenteeism was demoralized, and after the game restarted, Arsenal continued to press high.

In the 35th minute of the second half, after Chen Fan received a pass from Diaby, he handed the football to Sagna, who came up with an assist.

Sagna played a cross-cross to Robin van Persie in the corner of the box and fired a one-two from the edge of the box.

The football was bravely saved by the opposing goalkeeper, and Arshavin made a stop-up shot!

Four to zero!

Five minutes later, Arshavin crossed and Van Persie, who was ambushed in the box, was pushed to the ground.

Penalty kick!

Van Persie personally hit.

Five to zero!

In the forty-second minute of the second half, the collapsed Donetsk absentee defender made a mistake and passed the football directly to the feet of Chen Fan in the hinterland, and Chen Fan directly passed it to the feet.

Van Persie shook off the opposing defender and faced the attacking goalkeeper and pushed a shot in the penalty area!

Six to zero!

Van Persie scores a hat-trick!

In the end, the clash between the two strongest teams in the group came to an end, and the previously second-placed Donetsk absenteeism suffered a six-goal defeat at the Emirates Stadium!

Public opinion is in an uproar, even if there is a gap between the Ukrainian forces and the gunners, the gap cannot be so big.

Is the gunner too strong, or is the absenteeism of Donetsk too weak?
