EPL: Arsenal defeat Crystal to win Premier League opener

Arsenal began the 2022/2023 season with a 2-0 win over Crystal Palace.

The Gunners came into the game looking to start off on a positive note, after losing 2-0 in last campaign’s opener at Brentford.

Mikel Arteta’s men dominated the early exchanges and Gabriel Martinelli missed a great chance before heading in the first goal of the match.

However, after the break, Palace grew back into the match and threatened to level the scores.

But a combination of poor finishing an excellent goalkeeping from Aaron Ramsdale kept Arsenal in front.
