Havertz shines as Arsenal pay tribute to Campbell

PRIOR to kick-off, the stadium paid an emotional tribute to former Arsenal forward, Kevin Campbell, who died at the age of 54 earlier this summer.
Campbell won four major trophies at the club and was part their 1990-91 title-winning team.
And Arsenal’s first goal was arguably reminiscent of Campbell in his pomp, with Havertz darting between two defenders and powering a header past Wolves goalkeeper Jose Sa.

The Germany international’s industry proved a problem for Wolves all afternoon, although for much of the first period Arsenal’s best opportunities came courtesy of their incessant pressing and some wayward passing out of defence from the away side.
With the visitors struggling to play their way through the red and white shirts, Saka twice had chances to make it an even more profitable day in front of goal.
Martin Odegaard’s blistering long-range effort, tipped away by Sa, was their best effort in the second period until Saka rounded off a satisfactory start to the season for Arteta’s side.(BBC Sport)
