Arsenal Stunned by Bournemouth
Despite equalizing through a Viktor Gyökeres penalty, the Gunners were undone by goals from Eli Junior Kroupi and Alex Scott.
Manager Mikel Arteta described the performance as a 'big punch in the face,' lamenting his team's inability to dominate the game.
The defeat ends a club-record unbeaten run for Bournemouth and leaves Arsenal fans fearing a fourth consecutive season as runners-up.
With Manchester City holding two games in hand, the title race has been fundamentally reset ahead of their upcoming clash at the Etihad.
