FT: Sunderland 0-2 Arsenal
Sunderland
Sunderland boss Regis Le Bris, speaking to TNT Sport on the penalty: "We created many chances during the second half, it wasn't the only one. It's about belief and the fine details that make the difference at that level. We are getting better, improving the team, we have to learn and make the most of it."
On Europa League: "It's a symbol for the club, we are getting better, the momentum is big. For the fans it's going to be crazy. Proud to be in this position. We have earned to be there. Last season was tough, there were tough moments, we stayed consistent and earned this option at the end of the year. It's important to show desire, the connection with our fans. Another important game for us."

We had a really tough week, Chelsea, Napoli, winning there and now against a really tough opponent in a difficult place. We had really good periods but didn't score and after that they can suffocate you especially when they decided to be really physical and very direct and we had to overcome a situation that in my opinion was absolutely unacceptable at this level. I'm very worried and very sad because this can never be a penalty ever.
"Are you surprised? Are you surprised? No. OK.
"It's a judo roll from the opponent. Ezri [Konsa] does nothing. Just watch it. We have a lot of cameras and VAR we have to take responsibility to protect the game. Today the game was unprotected and it could have cost us the game and the momentum which is a really, really serious thing.
"I loved the save from David [Raya] the way the team reacted, the way we go again and we go against everything, but this should never happen, it's not fair, and I am sad, very sad, in that sense.
"I'm making it very clear publicly because it's for the game, it's not only for Arsenal, this cannot happen at this level.
On David Raya's penalty save: "We should not talk about the save of the keeper, we should talk about what happened before that."
On Bruno Guimaraes' performance: "Beautiful, he came on, the goal, the assist, remarkable. That why we talk about the finishers and making that impact and being able to support and help the team. He was outstanding."

FT: Sunderland 0-2 Arsenal
Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta, speaking to TNT Sport: "It could've been something very different."
On the penalty: "It's unacceptable, at this level it can change the course of the season, the championship. I've seen it ten times over to be sure. When I saw it live, I thought it's not possible. It cannot happen. The 27 years I've been in football, it's not a penalty in any case, in any context, at any level, in any league."
On Bruno Guimaraes' goal: "He decided the game."
On David Raya's save: "Unbelievable. He's a player that decides matches when we need it. Big credit to Sunderland and the way they played and the way they are coached. They are a really good team, I don't want to take away credit from them. They make it very hard for you. They have courage and great understanding of what's needed. Extremely tough, extremely happy."
"We have had a really tough week, Chelsea we won, Napoli we won, then coming here and wining again."

David: Another good win. It’s looking like Arsenal could finish above Spurs come the end of the season.

Especially on the time that he scored, coming to this place is so, so difficult. They make it very difficult, it was a big battle, very physical. We dealt with it very well, we defended well. We know how good they are in set pieces. At the end of the day, we got the three points, that's all that matters."
On saving the penalty: "It's a big moment, especially away from home. For the players and the team to have that faith and keep going and win the game, two minutes after we score. Even if we conceded a goal, we had the faith to get back in the game. It's important to keep the clean sheet because it helps us win games."

Sunderland
Image source, ReutersSunderland manager Regis Le Bris to BBC Match of the Day: "Frustrating result. Good game, especially in the second half. I think we went toe to toe with them and they are flying at the moment. We had the opportunity to score, I think it was deserved, [we] didn't score and thirty second after we conceded the goal. This is the level. I think they are relentless. When you don't seize your opportunities it's hard.
"The first half we were a bit reserved, respectful, knowing their threat and the way they play. The way they can damage your defence. So we were really well-organised, but we agreed at half-time it was important to show our quality with the ball. And that we did really well managing long balls at times and short balls when it was possible to play and we created chances.
"[David] Raya was one of the best players on the pitch today. It shows we are dangerous but not enough to score. We are really close. Winning is a process. They are at the top level right now. We were close this evening, it wasn't enough, but it was a good experience for us and our fans. We are getting better game after every game, it's hard to take but we need to go again.
"We have to believe and then it's a question of fine margins. Those fine margins are so hard to improve because it is the last percent and you need to work hard to get this one. We are in a good place. It's important to digest quickly because we have an impressive week ahead."

Martin Keown
Former England defender on TNT Sport
Arsenal have had two tough away games. In terms of grinding away a result, great. Their defence is immense. The beauty of this squad is that they have two players for every position.
FT: Sunderland 0-2 Arsenal
Former Sunderland defender Gary Bennett during his full-time analysis on BBC Radio Newcastle:
"If you're a neutral and you've seen the game tonight, you're thinking, Sunderland are a well organised team. They will cause teams in the Premier League problems."
"You look at tonight, maybe another occasion we could have come away with three points but you are playing against the Premier League champions but at least we've given them a game. At least we can walk away from here and say, you know what, we give our all."

Arsenal goalscorer Bruno Guimaraes to TNT Sports: "It was unbelievable, I feel very good. Everyone knows I had a difficult start through injuries in my short time. But I'm glad to be back and glad to play. And yeah, I score a beautiful goal, beautiful moment for me and my family and I am happy."
On scoring against Sunderland as an ex-Newcastle player: "Beautiful goal. A very good place, everyone knows my past, I had an amazing history at Newcastle. But now I'm trying to create a new history here and I start with the right foot.
On goalkeeper David Raya being the best in the world: "Definitely. Very good saves. He keeps us alive in the game, that unbelievable moment saving the penalty. I think after this moment we want [from it] a big confidence to play forward and score our goal. Everything for this guy he's an unbelievable player."

Credit to Sunderland, they are highly organised, hard to break down and resilient.
Arsenal were brilliant defensively, the goalkeeper was superb. They are champions and that's what champions do.

Steven: Brilliant game. Sunderland very unlucky. Raya, what a keeper! Don't think Arsenal will have many tougher games than this one. Champions win games when they are second best.

Arsenal are three points clear at the top of the Premier League.
Manchester City will draw level on 12 points if they beat United in the Manchester derby on Sunday (16:30 BST).
Tottenham's wait for a first Premier League goal and win this season continued after Roberto de Zerbi's side were held to a goalless home draw by Everton.
Spurs have not scored in any of their first four league matches, over 400 minutes of football, and again struggled to create many meaningful moments.
Their best chance came in the fifth minute when Jan Paul van Hecke volleyed over a wide free-kick from Andy Robertson at the back post.
Everton were marginally the better side and Thierno Barry almost put them in front, but his close-range header was blocked by the face of Antonin Kinsky in the 50th minute.
The Spurs keeper also gave the ball away to Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall in the 65th minute with a sloppy pass out, but recovered to block the midfielder's finish with his leg.
With two points Tottenham are 17th in the table, one point above the relegation zone, while Everton are seventh and still unbeaten after the first four games.

After back-to-back 17th-placed finishes and £302m spent in the summer transfer window, the only way seemed up for Spurs before this season.
Instead, after five matches in all competitions their only victory has come against Charlton in the Carabao Cup, while their league start is statistically their worst since 2008-09.
Throughout the match, and in front of a restless home crowd, the Spurs attackers seemed to lack confidence and often opted against shooting in promising positions.
The frustration was particularly telling when a tame shot from summer signing Mateus Fernandes was easily saved by Jordan Pickford in the 47th minute and greeted by ironic cheers.
James Maddison came on as a late substitute, having missed his side's last two league fixture with a shoulder injury, but he was unable to conjure up any late magic.
Spurs were instead booed by a handful of their supporters at full-time following the first ever goalless draw at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
They visit Liverpool in the Carabao Cup in their next match on Tuesday.
Everton's previous match was a thrilling 2-2 encounter with Manchester United.
This draw though was not nearly as dramatic.
That said, the Toffees almost stung the hosts late on through Brennan Johnson - whose winner landed Spurs the Europa League trophy in 2025 - but he hammered Dewsbury-Hall's cut-back well over.
Manager David Moyes gave a first Everton start to deadline-day signing Ainsley Maitland-Niles, while Jack Grealish came off the bench after rejoining on loan from Manchester City.
The England attacker made 22 appearances on loan last season and the Toffees will need his creativity after struggling here.
Grealish could get a start against Championship side Wolves in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday as he looks to build his fitness.

Tottenham Hotspur have only lost one of their last 17 Premier League home games against Everton (W12 D4), winning their last five since a 0-1 defeat in September 2020.
Everton lost both Premier League meetings with Tottenham Hotspur last season by an aggregate score of 4-0, but have never lost three in a row to Spurs without scoring in their league history.
Tottenham are one of three teams yet to score in the Premier League this season along with Aston Villa and Coventry City. Spurs have never failed to score in any of their first four league games in a single campaign before.
Tottenham Hotspur have failed to score in any of their three Premier League games this season. They last went four without a goal in August/September 2006, a run which included a 2-0 home loss to Everton.
Everton remain unbeaten in the Premier League so far this season (W1 D2), netting stoppage time equalisers in their last two games. However, the Toffees are winless in their last six away league games, alternating between defeat (3) and a draw (3) each time.
Only Brighton (34) and Crystal Palace (32) have forced more high turnovers than Everton (28) in the Premier League this season, with the Toffees’ seven shots following a high turnover the joint-most so far.
Tottenham’s only win and clean sheet in their last 12 Premier League home games came against Everton on the final day of 2025-26 (D4 L7). Their next loss will be their 50th at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the competition.

Spurs’ Mathys Tel has completed more dribbles than any other player in the Premier League this season (10).
Ainsley Maitland-Niles scored on his Premier League debut for Everton last time out, having netted in just one of his previous 109 appearances in the competition. Only three players have scored in both of their first two for Everton – Brian McBride (2003), Romelu Lukaku (2013) and Richarlison (2018).
