Arsenal hosted Wolverhampton at the Emirates in the first round of the English Premier League.
The match started at a slow pace, but by the 15th minute, the Gunners began to take control of the game. This pressure resulted in a deserved goal in the 25th minute.
Kai Havertz scored Arsenal's first goal of the season, heading in a cross from Bukayo Saka. The teams went into halftime with a narrow lead for the home side.
In the second half, Arsenal continued to dominate, and their efforts paid off again in the 74th minute when Saka added a goal of his own to make it 2-0. Interestingly, he was assisted by Havertz.
Next up for Arsenal is a challenging away game against Aston Villa on August 24.
