Harry Kane created Premier League history as his goal gave Tottenham a 1-0 win over Wolves. The England captain headed home in the second half to score for the 185th time in the Premier League – the most a player has scored for one club.

It took him above Sergio Aguero to fourth in the all-time list of scorers and it was his 250th in all competitions for Spurs, with Jimmy Greaves’ record of 266 surely under threat this season.

His goal, which was also Tottenham’s 1,000th at home in the Premier League, earned Spurs the win which extends their unbeaten start to the season.

Kane and partner in crime Son Heung-min both hit the woodwork in a much-improved second-half display. Wolves will perhaps feel hard done by as they were the better team in the opening 45 minutes with new record signing Matheus Nunes missing their best opportunity in the first half. Defeat leaves Bruno Lage’s side with just one point from their opening three games as they begin the season slowly again.

Bournemouth 0-3 Arsenal

79 mins: SAVE! That’s close from Moore. Shows all of his power with a header from almost the edge of the box that Ramsdale dives away to his right to tip wide. It may have been going just wide anyway but Ramsdale felt he couldn’t take any chances.

A couple of Cherries corners ensue but Arsenal hold firm and clear their lines.

Bournemouth 0-3 Arsenal

77 mins: A rare Bournemouth opportunity. Jaidon Anthony intercepts a loose Xhaka pass, he finds Kieffer Moore who helps it on to Marcus Tavernier. He’s to the right of the goal and strikes an effort but it’s well wide

Bournemouth 0-3 Arsenal

74 mins: Triple sub for Arsenal as Odegaard, Martinelli and White all come off with Takehiro Tomiyasu, Emile Smith Rowe and Eddie Nketiash entering the fray.

Not a bad trio to have

VAR - NO GOAL! Bournemouth 0-3 Arsenal

72 mins: And it’s GOAL number four for Arsenal. Neat build-up and Odegaard slips the ball through to Jesus who finishes well past Travers.

VAR having a long check to see if Jesus was offside though... It’s incredibly tight but eventually it’s deemed offside! NO GOAL! Very unlucky.

Bournemouth 0-3 Arsenal

71 mins: Zinchenko’s ball into the box from the left eventually falls to Martinelli who flicks it up and takes a shot at goal. I think it comes of his shin but it certainly went wide of a diving Mark Travers’ far post anyway.

Bournemouth 0-3 Arsenal

69 mins: Nice touch by Tavernier and then he’s fed back and able to drive forward. Later in the move, Lerma flagged offside to end any threat. Still no subs for Arsenal but Fabio Vieira and Emile Smith Rowe among the players warming up.

Bournemouth 0-3 Arsenal

67 mins: Half a chance for Bournemouth to get a shot away in anger but Moore is crowded out by three Arsenal players as he receives the ball in the area.

Arsenal, and Ramsdale especially, will be keen not to lose their clean sheet
