Arsenal beat Manchester United 0-1 at Old Trafford after Ruben Amorim’s decision to start Altay Bayindir backfired, with the keeper failing to deal with Declan Rice’s corner that led to Riccardo Calafiori’s decisive first-half goal.
Despite United dominating possession, creating 20 shots and showing clear improvement from last season, David Raya’s superb saves denied debutants Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo.
The result extended Arsenal’s strong record against United while leaving Amorim under pressure, as the defeat marked his 15th in 28 Premier League games – the fastest such tally for a United manager since 2009.
