Arsenal and Brighton ended in a 1-1 draw at the Emirates, interrupting both of their winning streaks. The Gunners played with ten men for nearly the entire second half due to Declan Rice’s red card in the 49th minute.
Both Arsenal and Brighton had recorded two victories before Saturday (31/8) in the Premier League; however, their winning streaks came to a halt at the Emirates as they finished drawing 1-1 during the 3rd round of matches.
Mikel Arteta’s team took the lead in the 38th minute with Kai Havertz scoring after an assist from Saka. However, at the beginning of the second half (49’), the Gunners were reduced to ten men as Declan Rice was sent off with a second yellow card.
This was an opportunity that the Seagulls did not waste, equalizing in the 58th minute. Joao Pedro, who had also scored against Manchester United in the previous round, was the one who netted the equalizer to secure a point for Brighton.
