Arsenal earned a vital 4-2 win over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge to boost their fading top-four hopes courtesy of a brace from Eddy Nketiah and Emile Smith Rowe and a last-minute clincher by Bukayo Saka from the penalty spot, Sportivation.com.ng reports.

Nketiah fired the Gunners into a 13th-minute lead with his first strike of the evening, but Timo Werner’s deflected strike just four minutes later restored parity in an all-action first half.

A super strike from Emile Smith Rowe put Arsenal back in front, only for Cesar Azpiliceuta to ensure the two sides headed in level at the break.

Nketiah scored his second of the night just before the hour mark to put the visitors ahead before Bukayo Saka sealed the win for Arsenal in the 92nd minute from the spot after Azpilicueta was penalised for bringing him down in the box.
