After falling behind early to a goal from Ollie Watkins, Arsenal responded through Bukayo Saka's half-volley before Philippe Coutinho netted for Villa just past the half-hour mark. The Gunners, who had lost to Manchester City just three days earlier, were in danger of suffering their second defeat in a row.

However, Zinchenko's powerful long-range effort brought the sides level once again, and in added time, Jorginho scored a sensational goal that ricocheted off Villa goalkeeper Emi Martinez and into the back of the net. Substitute Gabriel Martinelli added a late tap-in to seal the victory for Arsenal.

Zinchenko, who was instrumental in the turnaround, said Arsenal had learned an "unbelievable lesson" from their previous defeat and urged his teammates to keep fighting and believe they can achieve their goals.

The win put Arsenal three points ahead of their title rivals at the top of the table, and the team will be hoping to build on this momentum as the season progresses.
