Arsenal lost for the first time in the season, suffering only their second failure in 2024 in the Premier League - few expected such a thing to happen on the road to Bournemouth.

A hard-fought game changed the picture in the 30th minute when Arsenal were left with a player less as William Saliba was the last defender to commit a foul.

VAR was inexorable, the Frenchman had to be sent off, and the "gunners" could not avoid failure with ten men.

Mikel Arteta's team kept a clean sheet until the 70th minute, and then Ryan Christie scored on an assist from Justin Kluivert. Everything after that was doubly difficult for the London team.

And she succumbed once more, from a penalty that goalkeeper David Raja saved - Kluivert was the sure scorer ten minutes before the end...
