Arsenal beats Man Utd to close gap on Liverpool

LONDON — Arsenal worked their set-piece magic to beat Manchester United 2-0 on Wednesday (Thursday in Manila), ending Ruben Amorim's unbeaten start to life in the Old Trafford hotseat and closing the gap on Premier League leaders Liverpool.

United frustrated the home side at the Emirates in a cagey first half but Jurrien Timber broke the deadlock from a corner after the break and William Saliba repeated the feat.
