– I hardly think I have ever seen a football match at this level that has been so uneven already in the opening minutes. Arsenal torment Sheffield United with combination play at a sky-high level, said Viaplay expert Lars Tjærnås. After just five minutes, Martin Ødegaard sent Arsenal into the lead, and within a quarter of an hour the away team led 3-0. Even then the home fans began to leave Bramall Lane in Sheffield. At the break, Arsenal led 5-0, and Sheffield United were slaughtered for their performance. – They are pathetic. It’s the worst I’ve seen in the Premier League, Viaplay expert Bojan Djordjic said of Sheffield United at half-time. In the end, Arsenal won 6-0. Thus, Sheffield United lost by five goals or more for the third time in a row at home in the Premier League. – That first half was a shame. I can’t remember seeing anything worse than this,” said former Liverpool player Jamie Carragher on Sky Sports. HUMBLE: Sheffield United lost by five goals or more for the third consecutive home game. Photo: Reuters – A complete humiliation Eight minutes after Ødegaard had sent Arsenal into the lead, Jayden Bogle put the ball into his own goal, and two minutes later Gabriel Martinelli made it 3-0. – This is becoming a complete humiliation for Sheffield United and “a masterclass” from Arsenal, former Arsenal striker Alan Smith said on Sky Sports. Barely ten minutes later, Kai Havertz made it 4-0 for Arsenal. And just before the break, Declan Rice made it 5-0. – Now the question is whether there will be anyone left in the stands for the second half, wondered Viaplay commentator Andreas Toft. And in the second half there were significantly fewer home fans in the stands. They did not have to witness Ben White make it 6-0 after 57 minutes. And that was the result. JULIETATION: Declan Rice scores Arsenal’s fifth goal. Photo: AP Fighting for gold This is the sixth time this season that Sheffield United have lost by five or more goals in the league. Arsenal beat Sheffield United 5-0 at home in October. This is the seventh straight victory in the league for the reds from London. In the seven games, Arsenal have scored 31 goals. With the win, Arsenal are two points behind Liverpool who lead the Premier League. Sheffield United are in last place with eleven points up to safe ground.
