Ethan Nwaneri Shines in Arsenal's 3-1 Win Over Brentford as Saka's Absence Looms

Posted : 02 January 2025

Gabriel Martinelli's admiration for Bukayo Saka highlights the crucial role the England winger plays in Arsenal's attacking setup. With Saka sidelined due to a hamstring injury, the pressure is on the rest of the team to step up in his absence, as evidenced by Arsenal's 3-1 win over Brentford. The match saw Arsenal come from behind after Mikel Merino's early goal for Brentford, with Gabriel Jesus and Martinelli scoring to secure the victory.

 

Despite Jesus and Martinelli's contributions, it was 17-year-old Ethan Nwaneri who truly caught the eye. This was Nwaneri's first Premier League start, a significant milestone after debuting at just 15 years old in a match against Brentford two years ago. In this game, he played pivotal roles in Arsenal's two quick goals in the second half, showcasing his growing influence.

 

Nwaneri's corner kick directly led to Merino's goal, highlighting his ability to create dangerous set-pieces. Shortly after, Nwaneri’s cross, which was not fully cleared by Brentford, allowed Martinelli to score Arsenal's third, cementing their comeback and securing the three points.

 

With Saka out for several months, Nwaneri’s standout performance against Brentford serves as an encouraging sign for Arsenal. The young player’s potential to fill in and contribute alongside Jesus and Martinelli may prove vital in maintaining Arsenal’s momentum during this challenging period.
