The breakthrough came in the 14th minute with a well-worked move. Ending in a crisp finish from Trossard after a pinpoint cross by Saka. Just 14 minutes later, Saka was again involved, sending a low ball across the box which Martinelli tucked home for Arsenal’s second.
Ipswich collapses after the red card
Things went from bad to worse for Ipswich when Lee Davies was sent off in the 32nd minute for a dangerous tackle on Saka. Leaving the hosts down to ten men. Despite Arsenal’s dominance, they missed several clear chances before the break—Saka notably failed to convert a one-on-one in the 38th minute.
Second half control and youth impact
In the second half, Arsenal remained in complete command. Odegaard came close from a clever corner in the 47th minute, while Arteta made confident changes, introducing youngsters Ethan Nwaneri and Miles Lewis-Skelly by the 55th minute.
Trossard struck again in the 69th minute with a classy goal. Weaving through defenders before slotting home Arsenal’s third. Arteta later brought on Raheem Sterling and Kieran Tierney, continuing the squad rotation.
Nwaneri caps off the rout
Ipswich’s only real chance came from a counter-attack led by George Hurst, but his effort missed the target. Arsenal sealed the emphatic win in the 88th minute when Nwaneri’s deflected shot wrong-footed the keeper for the fourth and final goal.
This commanding performance saw Arsenal crush Ipswich 4-0. A result that keeps the pressure on at the top of the Premier League table. With young talent shining and the attack in top form, Arsenal looks ready for the season’s final stretch.
