Aston Villa 0-1 Arsenal: Bukayo Saka nets winner as Gunners continue perfect start

Arsenal maintained their perfect start to the season with a 1-0 victory over Aston Villa at Villa Park. Bukayo Saka scored the decisive goal in a cagey encounter where Mikel Arteta’s side laboured for long periods. Aston Villa, managed by Unai Emery, showed improvement from their opening defeat but failed to score. Notably, new £55m signing Ezri Konsa made his debut against his former club, while David Raya remained untroubled throughout the gruelling battle.
