Arsenal have taken the lead against Manchester United in their 2025/26 Premier League season opener, with Riccardo Calafiori heading in the opening goal in the 13th minute. The Italian defender capitalized on a misjudged corner from Declan Rice, with United goalkeeper Altay Bayindir failing to claim the ball cleanly.
United responded with a chance of their own, but Matheus Cunha was denied by a superb save from Arsenal keeper David Raya.
Meanwhile, it was a frustrating Premier League debut for United striker Viktor Gyokeres, who was substituted before the hour mark for Kai Havertz after a quiet performance.
