Man United vs Arsenal LIVE: Premier League result and final score after Antony and Marcus Rashford goals

Manchester United 3-1 Arsenal: Erik ten Hag’s side were ruthless on the counter-attack as they ended Arsenal’s winning start and extended their own run

"Ten Hag brings out the best in me" - new Man Utd winger Antony

Manchester United ended Arsenal’s winning start to the Premier League season in a thrilling clash that saw Antony score on his debut and Marcus Rashford hit a quick-fire double after Bukayo Saka had equalised in the second half.

After a bright start by both teams, Arsenal thought they had struck first as Gabriel Martinelli finished a devastating counter-attack but the goal was ruled out by VAR for an earlier foul on Christian Eriksen.

From there Arsenal took control but the Gunners were torn apart by United on the break, as Rashford set up Antony to steer a first-time finish past Aaron Ramsdale for a debut goal following his €100m move from Ajax.

Arsenal responded after the break with chances through Martin Odegaard and Saka, before the England international fired a deserved equaliser on the hour-mark. It seemed as if Arsenal had the momentum, but they were hit with a counter-punch as Rashford raced away to restore their lead.

It was the latest swing in a thrilling match and with Arsenal pushing forward with more numbers, Rashford scored his second to seal United’s fourth straight win and end Arsenal’s unbeaten start.

Manchester United 3-1 Arsenal

88 mins: Saka tries to glide in between Malacia and Eriksen but the pair do well to block him off and clear the danger.

Eriksen has been sensational today - both defensively and offensively - working tirelessly while also involving himself heavily in both goals.

YELLOW. Saka is booked for a late challenge. Frustration.

Manchester United 3-1 Arsenal

86 mins: Jesus clips a dangerous ball into Nketiah who is bodychecked by Maguire in the area. He asks Paul Tierney for a penalty but the referee is unmoved. Would have been soft.

Arsenal come again and Jesus lays it off for Vieira who hits a volley from the edge of the area over the bar. Was never going to trouble De Gea in the United goal.

The visitors are trying their best to get one back, but it simply isn’t happening for them.

84 mins: Xhaka takes the free-kick and it’s blocked by the United wall.

The Arsenal midfielder then slips trying to keep the ball in play and Fred looks to slide Ronaldo through but overhits the pass.

Ronaldo is fuming. That would have definitely sealed it.

Manchester United 3-1 Arsenal

82 mins: YELLOW! That is one of the fastest yellows you will see for a substitute as Maguire goes into the book. It’s fellow sub Casemiro who was caught on the ball and Jesus breaks before being hauled down by the United skipper.

It’s a free-kick in a central area, 25 yards from goal.

Manchester United 3-1 Arsenal

78 mins: That could be a killer goal for Arsenal. They have so many attacking players on the pitch, but United can sit deep and hit them on the break with real danger now.

This could be a statement scoreline for Ten Hag’s side.

GOAL! Manchester United 3-1 Arsenal (Rashford, 75)

75 mins: THAT COULD BE GAME OVER!

Those three substitutions have left huge gaping holes for United to exploit and the hosts do so immediately!

It’s a great pass by Dalot who finds Eriksen galloping from the halfway line into empty green grass. He is in and has Rashford alongside him who he lays it off for and the England man makes no mistake tapping into an open goal.

Arsenal totally exposed. Arteta with his head in his hands.
