Arsenal Squeeze Past Shakhtar in a Nail-Biter

The Gunners secured a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Ukrainian side Shakhtar Donetsk in a pre-season friendly on Wednesday. It wasn't the most thrilling performance, but a win's a win, right? Especially when you're trying to get your legs back after a summer break.

The match was played at the Emirates Stadium, with Arsenal looking to build on their recent pre-season success. It was a game of two halves, with Arsenal dominating the first, creating numerous chances but struggling to find the back of the net. The second half was a different story, with Shakhtar coming out with a more aggressive approach.

It was a real nail-biter, with both sides trading chances. But in the end, it was the home side who took the win thanks to a well-taken goal from Gabriel Jesus. The Brazilian forward, who is looking to make a real impact at Arsenal this season, tapped home the winning goal in the 85th minute, sending the home crowd into a frenzy.

The game was a good test for both sides, with Arsenal looking to implement their new manager's style of play and Shakhtar testing themselves against some top-flight opposition. It was a real scrap, with some gritty performances from both teams. But despite the lack of goals, it was an entertaining match, with plenty of chances and a few late-game scares for the Gunners.

This win will surely give Arsenal confidence going into the new season. They'll be hoping to carry this momentum into their upcoming Premier League matches. It's going to be a long and tough season, but with a squad like this, they'll be looking to compete for trophies.
