Arsenal reclaimed the top spot in the Premier League after securing a hard-fought 1-0 victory against Manchester United at Old Trafford today, Sunday.

The decisive goal came from Leandro Trossard, who capitalized on a defensive lapse by the hosts.

It was Kai Havertz who orchestrated the move from the right side, delivering a pinpoint pass into the box for Trossard to slot home.

Arsenal however displayed a resilient defensive performance to secure all three points in the match, earning their 18th clean sheet of the league season under the guidance of manager Mikel Arteta.

With this victory, Truth Live News reports that the Gunners move back to the top of the table, edging one point ahead of reigning champions Manchester City, who have a match in hand.

Pep Guardiola’s City will have the opportunity to reclaim the lead if they emerge victorious against Tottenham Hotspur next Tuesday.

Meanwhile, Manchester United find themselves in eighth place with two games remaining as they currently trail sixth-placed Newcastle by three points in their pursuit of a European berth for next season.
