Arsenal broke its stubborn knot with Everton by defeating it in its stronghold for the first time in six years with a score of 1-0, while Chelsea continued its disappointing start by falling into a goalless draw against its host, humble Bournemouth, in the fifth round of the English Premier League.
Arsenal raises its score to 13 points in fourth place, lagging behind on goal difference from its neighbors Tottenham and Liverpool, who are in second and third place, respectively, while Manchester City leads with a full score (15 out of 15) by defeating its host West Ham 3-1.
Arsenal succeeded in achieving its first victory at Goodison Park since 2017, thanks to the goal scored by its Belgian international striker Leandro Trossard following a pass from Bakayo Saka in the 69th minute, scoring his first goal this season.
At Vitality Stadium, Chelsea failed to score despite the scoring opportunities that presented themselves, but Senegalese centre-forward Nicholas Jackson and substitute Cole Palmer, who arrived this season from his neighbor Manchester City, did not exploit them well.
Chelsea finished last season in the middle of the standings and will miss participating in any European competition. It also spent 350 million pounds to sign many players, most of them young talents, to strengthen its ranks for the current season, and it contracted with Argentine coach Mauricio Pochettino, but the latter has not yet found the ideal combination. For his team.
Thus, Chelsea raised its score to only 5 points from a single win against Luton Town, promoted to the Premier League, two draws and two losses, in 14th place, and the fifth stage of the English Premier League concludes on Monday with Nottingham Forest meeting with Burnley.
