Matheus Cunha wasted the visitors’ best chance.
ARSENAL BEGAN THEIR PREMIER League campaign with a 2-0 win over Wolves at the Emirates as goals in either half from Kai Havertz and Bukayo Saka got Mikel Arteta’s side off to the ideal start in their quest to end a 21-year wait for the title.
Saka sent relief around the stadium when he blasted in at the near post 16 minutes from time, settling Arsenal nerves and easing the path to victory on the opening weekend. Ait-Nouri almost made Arsenal pay for their profligacy when he lashed inches wide from 25 yards, a reminder of the fragility of the home side’s one-goal lead.
