The victory for the Londoners was brought by Riss Nelson with a beautiful kick after a corner kick in the 90+7th minute. The Ukrainian defender of the Gunners Oleksandr Zinchenko played a full match on the field, while his compatriot Ilya Zabarny was not included in the Cherries' squad for this game due to an injury.
