The Premier League encounter between Leeds United and leaders Arsenal was delayed by 40 minutes following a power outage at Elland Road.

Bukayo Saka scored the winning goal in the first half by punishing Rodrigo’s loose pass, exchanging passes with Martin Odegaard before smashing in high at the near post.

Centre referee,  Chris Kavanagh had earlier stopped the match inside 23 seconds  because of another technical issues which disrupted communication with the video assistant referee (VAR) officials, while goalline technology was down too.

There was drama in stoppage time when the referee  sent off Arsenal’s Gabriel for kicking out at Leeds striker Patrick Bamford and awarded the hosts a penalty, but both decisions were overturned after Kavanagh reviewed the incident on the pitchside monitor.

Leeds initially had an opportunity to level scores from the penalty spot  but Bamford’s penalty aimed for the sky.

Leeds piled on the pressure and Luis Sinisterra’s goal-bound shot was blocked by Gabriel, while Brenden Aaronson’s arrowed strike from long range was pushed away by Aaron Ramsdale.
Arsenal are still topping the EPL Table with 27 points from 10 games thereby opening a four point gap between it and Second place Manchester City.
Arsenal have a date with PSV in the Europa League before setting up a date with EPL strugglers Southampton next weekend.
