00:00second and through the middle is Kai Havertz who finishes adroitly with some aplomb

00:20and Arsenal have the lead in a game against a stubborn opponent in Brighton

00:26they've taken a fair old bit of breaking down it's a great finish i'm not sure what Lewis Dunn

00:32is thinking there i mean he probably feels he might have been fouled but he's got to do more

00:38and he's got to be better i don't think Martin Odegaard is particularly happy still with that

00:42knock he received 15-20 minutes ago but great finish Kai Havertz important goal this because

00:48it's not quite happened just watch Lewis Dunn here he checks his shoulder is that a nudge no

00:53that's nothing that's he doesn't even really challenge for the ball Pikaio Saka is onto it

00:58like a flash there's a gaping hole right down the middle of that Brighton defence and Kai Havertz

01:04just sweeps into it goalkeeper way out the goal and just clips it over his head perfectly into

01:10the back of the net that's an important one today because it's not been the silky stuff

01:14that Arsenal want to find but now they have a lead Kai Havertz a scorer against Brighton

01:20for the fourth successive match managed it home and away last season

01:32May of 2023 Brighton were 3-0 winners here

01:35Arsenal four points adrift of Manchester City with two to play and effectively signal the end of their

01:40realistic title hopes

01:50shaping to take the free kick wax Declan Royce instead of the ball

02:00well the free kick was given Brighton's way he was just about to take it Biltman and I think

02:04Declan Royce might have inadvertently touched it he was supposed to get away from the ball

02:10quickly to enable people to take their free kicks

02:17the referee is delving into his pocket for a yellow card oh like that in fact

02:25who's he give the red card to there

02:30well the yellow came out first of all and then Royce who's already on a yellow

02:35he's been penalized I think for kicking the ball away for not getting away from the ball

02:39and he's got a second yellow and Declan Royce is the player that's sent off

02:44well I mean what I would say about that this is first and foremost it's unnecessary once

02:51Declan Royce knows the free kick goes against him get away from the ball move move look he's

02:56had a little nibble at it I'll tell you he's wrong there Declan Royce to do that

03:01his toe pokes it away he doesn't want to get away from the ball and on a yellow card I'm afraid you

03:08cannot do that you've got to get away from it otherwise you're going to get

03:12carded and Declan Royce only has himself to blame there

03:20Declan Royce is trying to explain himself to the player who ended up kicking him but that's not

03:25going to make a jot of difference Declan Royce is sent off it means he will be suspended for the

03:32north London derby as it's a second yellow rather than a straight red it will be a one-game ban but

03:39it's a big game that he'll miss and Arsenal have got to play the vast majority of the second half

03:44here a man down and there's not much of a look with his manager either as he departs

03:48fourth official John Busby also being asked by Royce

04:05now it's Minte through the middle and it's Jal Pedro and Brighton have their level up

04:11seven minutes after the dismissal of Bryce Arsenal opened up Brighton make their extra player pay

04:25and Fabian Hertzler on his first ever trip to the emirates has plenty to smile about now

04:32that's a great run it's a really good run right through the middle of that

04:35arsenal back line I'm not quite sure why there was such a gaping hole there

04:41we'll see it here the two center halves are well split they're just a little slow to react Gabrielle

04:47didn't really want to dip his foot into that first challenge when it comes back to Jal Pedro

04:51he finishes that brilliantly it's a lovely ball from Louis Dunk great first touch from Minte

04:57and the finish from Jal Pedro is an emphatic one

05:03Jal Pedro who got the winner against Manchester United seven days ago

05:07now the equalizer against Arsenal and Brighton will fancy their chances of getting something

05:12more than a point here now Arsenal look like they're going to a back five
