Arsenal Snatches Victory from Aston Villa with Last-Minute Goal by Jorginho.
Arsenal appeared to be on the brink of another setback in the title race against Aston Villa at Villa Park.
Despite coming from behind twice, Martin Odegaard's open goal miss with only 12 minutes remaining had left Arsenal's title hopes hanging by a thread.
It seemed to be a familiar tale of Arsenal's title challenge crumbling before their eyes. However, with just three minutes of added time remaining, Jorginho's unstoppable drive hit the bar, then bounced off Aston Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez's head and over the line.
Arsenal supporters erupted with joy, while Villa fans watched in disbelief. The result was even more satisfying for Arsenal supporters, as their former keeper Martinez was the man who had inadvertently gifted them the win.
The victory was even sweeter given that Martinez had not endeared himself to Arsenal fans since his departure from the Emirates. Arsenal had come to Villa Park expecting to be the victims of the "law of the ex" with their former boss Unai Emery now in charge at Villa, but instead, they ended up benefiting from it.
