Shock in the Premier League: Arsenal's incredible run comes to an end 😱 | OneFootball

They found the breakthrough!

This Saturday afternoon, Arsenal traveled to the pitch of the formidable newly-promoted Sunderland.

Leaders of the Premier League and buoyed by their rock-solid defense, the Gunners approached the match full of confidence against the league’s fifth-placed team.

However, to everyone’s surprise, it was the Black Cats who opened the scoring thanks to Danny Ballard (36th minute), thus ending David Raya’s incredible unbeaten streak.

Indeed, Arsenal had not conceded a single goal in their last eight matches in all competitions, totaling 812 minutes. You have to go back to last September 28, in a match against Newcastle, to find the last time Arsenal had to retrieve the ball from their own net.

Even more incredible, Danny Ballard is only the fourth player to score against Arsenal this season, following Erling Haaland, Nick Woltemade, and Dominik Szoboszlai.

Despite this opening goal, it was ultimately Sunderland who had to dig deep to secure a draw in stoppage time.
