Arsenal posted a 3-0 lead over Manchester United after 20 minutes of play and it's getting ugly out there. Alexis Sanchez has two goals so far and his second (above) was an absolute rocket. He was able to muscle his way through Matteo Darmian and even though the ball briefly got caught up in his feet, he recovered and put a strong boot on it.Sanchez opened the scoring for Arsenal early in the sixth minute with a nice little backheel flick off the cross from Mesut Ozil.
Then Ozil got in on the act himself for the second score of the day minutes later. Theo Walcott sprinted down into the penalty area on the far side and when the United defense finally caught up he laid it off to Ozil, who just pushed it past David de Gea.
The bleeding has stopped for now as half time approaches and the score remains 3-0.[NBCSN]
