Arsenal beat Luton Town 4-3 in the Premier League

Kathmandu: Declan Rice scored a 97th-minute winner as Arsenal beat Luton Town 4-3 on Tuesday night to go five points clear at the top of the Premier League.

Gabriel Martinelli netted the opener at Kenilworth Road before Gabriel Osho hit back for Luton.

Gabriel Jesus restored Arsenal’s lead but goals from Elijah Adebayo and Ross Barkley – both aided by errors from keeper David Raya – then swung the game in Luton’s favor.

Arsenal took the lead in the 20th minute from the first shot of the game when Martinelli swept home from a Bukayo Saka cutback following a quick throw-in by Jesus.

Moments earlier, Luton keeper Thomas Kaminski had raced out of his 18-yard box to prevent the ball going out for an Arsenal corner.

Kaminski kicked the ball out for a throw-in instead but he and his defenders were then caught out of position after some quick-thinking by Jesus.

Luton equalized five minutes later when Osho headed in from an Alfie Doughty corner.
