Valiant Bees outgunned by the Gunners, but go down fighting

On paper this was a home win banker as Arsenal are top of the PL. I wasn't expecting miracles and a point would have been a fantastic result. Then I saw the team sheet with KA making five changes from the side that beat Burnley, with many of our best players e.g. Thiago, Damsgaard and Collins only named as subs. Even though we went behind in the 11th minute (Pinnock now just past his use by date) we did try to score and not always sit back, and only an amazing save in the first half from Raya prevented Schade from equalising with a header. In the second half we tried valiantly and made important substitutions in the 60th minute plus Kelleher making a good double save, but they scored their second goal in the first minute of added on time. Saka was allowed to get goalside and his shot was parried by Kelleher but it still had enough pace to go over the line. We did have 8 corners during the game. We stay in North London for the away game with Spurs on Saturday. Our first meeting with TF since he left the club. Let's hope Spurs do not rediscover their home form.
