48 naps.
It could easily be the record of the Premier League era …
Only 48 days have passed since the end of the 2019-2020 English football season, which reached the duration of the marathon, and on Saturday the ball started again with the lion logo.
One of the main questions in the Fulham – Arsenal match was which team could most effectively address deficiencies in their offensive game. Because rookie (and host) Fulham should have somehow replaced Alexander Mitrovich, who scored 41 percent of the team’s goals in the previous Championship season and wanted Scott Parker to rest him due to national team commitments. And Arsenal simply haven’t scored as few goals in a season since the 1995-1996 season as they did in the season that ended 48 days ago (56).
We got one step closer to the answer in the 8th minute, after a rebound. Alexandre Lacazette took the door of Marek Rodák (0-1). Fulham organized his defense well, but with the strength of Parker’s team, he hardly ran any more than that. The first half ended with two goal attempts at home and seven at home.
After the turn, Arsenal quickly cut all problems short: in the 49th minute, they scored in the summer Gabriel (0-2), move much more freely in the 57th minute compared to the first half Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (0-3) took the door.
There was no fairy tale, Mitrovics could have come to the host to see if he could embellish the result with him, but the Serbian striker, who scored 49 goals in 100 bets in the Fulham colors, was unable to help his team this time.
Arsenal started the new season with a victory. He played a key role in Chelsea’s success, with Willian winning for free at the end of his contract, delivering two assists, and also leading on the first goal. Lacazette became the first player in PL history to score the first goal of the given season in two seasons (the previous one in 2017-2018), while Aubameyang (as of now) has been the most successful forward in the league. league with 55 hits since debut in February 2018.. Gabriel is the first Arsenal player since 2009 and Thomas Vermaelen to make his scoring debut in an away game for the “Cannons.”
