On Saturday, four intriguing matches of the 30th round were played in the English Premier League. London's Arsenal, who suffered a painful blow in the middle of the week, sought revenge in the match against Brighton. After Nicolo Pepe's goal, the Gunners finally ended up without points - Brighton dramatically extended the lead. N. Pepe led Arsenal forward in the 68th minute, when he sent the ball into Brighton's goal with a left-footed shot from the penalty area. Brighton did not break after the initial shock and equalized after 7 minutes - Lewis Dunk scored after a corner kick. Just as the referee was preparing to end the match, Brighton dealt another blow to the Arsenal team - Neal Maupay disarmed Emiliano Martinez after a great pass from his teammate and gifted a very important victory to his team. Arsenal saddened not only by another defeat, but also by goalkeeper Bernd Leno's injury at the end of the first half. The German suffered a serious knee injury after colliding with a Brighton representative, likely ending his season. In the previous match, Arsenal lost Granit Xhaka and Pablo Mari. With 40 points in their account, Arsenal remains in ninth place and is likely to bid farewell to hopes of reaching the top four. Brighton ranks 15th. The other match between Leicester City and Watford also ended in a draw. Two goals at the end of the match did not determine the winner. Another encounter ended with convincing victories for Wolves and Crystal Palace. Results: Brighton 2 - 1 Arsenal 68' [0 - 1] N. Pepe 75' [1 - 1] L. Dunk 90+5' [2 - 1] N.
