Arsenal maintained their title charge with a hard-fought win at Brighton, with Bukayo Saka's decisive goal proving the difference. The victory came despite Arsenal's clear focus on the three points rather than making friends at the seaside.
The Gunners' advantage at the top is now seven points, though they have played an extra game. With 78 minutes on the clock, Arsenal supporters celebrated when they learned of Nottingham Forest's equalizer at Manchester City, with chants referencing previous title-winning glories suggesting the wait for another championship is nearing its end.
