Arsenal suffered their third defeat in four matches as Mikel Arteta’s side were deservedly beaten 2-1 at home by Bournemouth.
Junior Kroupi have the visitors the lead in the first half before Viktor Gyokeres pulled Arsenal level from the spot.
But Mikel Arteta’s side were comfortably second-best after the break and were punished when Alex Scott surged into the area before coolly finishing past David Raya.
The Gunners miss out on the opportunity to move 12 points clear at the top of the Premier League table and could have their lead cut to just six points if Manchester City can beat Chelsea on Sunday
Goals from Junior Kroupi and Alex Scott gave Bournemouth a 2-1 victory at Emirates Stadium for a second season running.
Teenager Kroupi opened the scoring for the Cherries with a back-post finish before Viktor Gyokeres slammed home his penalty to make it 18 goals in his debut campaign.
But Bournemouth found the winner with 15 minutes remaining as Scott’s composed finish from close range inflicted our second home loss of the season.
Bournemouth came into this one following a 22-day break since their last match, a 2-2 draw with Manchester United, and started the better, but struggled to trouble our defence in the opening exchanges.
