EPL: Arsenal becomes first club to reach 100 goals, third in Europe’s top five leagues

Arsenal, on Saturday, became the first club in the Premier League to reach 100 goals in all competitions this season, according to OptaJoe.

The Gunners also became just the third big team in the top five European leagues (EPL, LaLiga, Bundesliga, Serie A and French Ligue 1) to reach that milestone this season after Bayern Munich (128 goals) and Barcelona (110 goals).

This comes after Arsenal’s FA Cup 2-1 win against Mansfield Town on Saturday.

Two goals from Noni Madueke and Eberechi Eze gave Mikel Arteta’s side the victory against the EFL League One side.

After beating Mansfield Town, Arsenal have now qualified for the FA Cup quarter-final stage.

Arsenal will now take on Bayer Leverkusen in the UEFA Champions League Round of 16 stage in mid-week.

Mikel Arteta’s side are currently on top of the Premier League table ahead of second-place Manchester City.
