On Saturday evening, the last matches of today's new English Premier League season took place, where London's "Arsenal" faced off against "Crystal Palace". At the "Emirates" stadium, led by Arsene Wenger, the home team was able to prove their advantage against the visitors only at the end of the match. The first half started quite calmly and both teams did not have great chances to score within the first 10 minutes, but Arsenal did not hold out for long. In the 35th minute, "Crystal Palace" took the lead with a goal from center-back Brede Hangeland, who scored after a precisely lifted corner kick from Jason Puncheon. However, at the end of the first half, the balance was restored by another defender, this time Arsenal's Laurent Koscielny. The Frenchman equalized the score after a pass from Alexis Sanchez. There was no shortage of action for the rest of the game, but the Arsenal players were superior. In extra time, Aaron Ramsey defeated the opponents' goalkeeper and secured a very important victory in the new season.
