Arsenal beat Bournemouth 3-2 with dramatic injury-time winner
Substitute Reiss Nelson scored a stunning winner in the eighth minute of stoppage time to leave the visiting Cherries stunned.
Bournemouth scored the second fastest goal from the start of a match in Premier League history, taking the kickoff down to the Arsenal box and scoring through Philip Billing.
The visitors proceeded to absorb the Arsenal attacks, thanks in part to a big double save by Bournemouth goalkeeper Neto, and they threatened to score a second. That second goal came on a corner kick in the second half and it looked like Arsenal might be staring just a fourth defeat on the season.
