Today in China, there was a match between London giants "Chelsea" and "Arsenal".
Before the game, the strategist of the latter team Arsene Wenger said that the matches against these rivals are crucial, so it is difficult to call them friendly.
The duel was indeed intense and interesting, and not even reaching half an hour into the game, after a collision with goalkeeper David Ospina, Pedro had to leave the field. The Spaniard was later even taken to the hospital.
However, shortly after this episode, the "aristocrats" took the lead with Willian scoring a great goal and then Michy Batshuayi followed up, making it 2-0 before halftime.
Just after the break, Marcos Alonso beautifully passed by Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, who then delivered another great goal for Batshuayi.
The match ultimately ended with a score of 3-0 and "Chelsea" achieved a sweet revenge for their failure in the FA Cup final.
Meanwhile, "Liverpool" players defeated the season before "Premier" league champions "Leicester City" club.
This match was much more intense, and the first goal was scored by "Foxes" forward Islam Slimani, who managed to score with his head.
However, the greatest strength of the "Reds" then spoke up - attacking midfielders. Mohamed Salah scored in the first half, and Philippe Coutinho delivered a wonderful strike towards the end.
