Arsenal made to work hard as Rice wins it late at Old Trafford
Gunners move a step closer to Champions League with gritty win over United
Gabriel Jesus and Bukayo Saka scored in either half to cancel out Marcus Rashford's opener. Declan Rice's 96th-minute winner moved Arsenal four points clear of Chelsea in third place.
A cagey first half saw Arsenal take the lead on 17 minutes after Oleksandr Zinchenko found Gabriel Jesus in the box and the Brazilian fired home. Rashford equalized seven minutes later, tucking home a Diogo Dalot cross at the far post.
Arsenal's pressure after the break paid off as Saka restored their lead with a low finish on 53 minutes. United pressed for a leveller but Rice sealed the victory late on with a close-range finish after a scramble in the box.
