Arsenal beats Forest 2-1 in Premier League opener delayed by ticketing malfunction at stadium -
Turner was making his Premier League debut after only being used in cup competitions by Arsenal last season.
Saka then produced another highlight-reel moment just six minutes later, cutting in from the right and curling a left-footed long-range strike into the far corner past the outstretched Turner. “He trained like a beast this week, telling me ‘I deserve to play,’” Arteta said. “So I had to play him, because he gave me every reason.”
But Timber had to go off with a leg injury early in the second half, while Rice had three efforts on goal saved by Turner.
