Arsenal scored two goals in the first seven minutes, then added a third in 19′ and Manchester United was completely shell-shocked. It’s very difficult to come back from a deep hole like that. Alexis Sanchez scored in the 6′ and 19′. Mesut Ozil found the back of the net in the 7′.
Take a look at the footage:

Here’s the Ozil scoring strike. This is Arsenal’s first victory in nine tries and four a half years over United. Today marked the first real test for the Red Devils, and they absolutely failed.
Great team build up and a clinical passers finish by Ozil ?? pic.twitter.com/V7JGyGF4Rs

The Gunners are now second in the table with 16 points and United (who also have 16 points) fall from the top of the table to third place. Huge win for Arsenal, obvious man of the match award to Alexis Sanchez.
