Mesut Ozil makes slick start to Arsenal career as United, Spurs also win in Premier League
MANCHESTER, England – Mesut Ozil made a slick start to life in English football by claiming a debut victory with Arsenal, while Manchester United and Tottenham also picked up routine wins as the Premier League swung back into action on Saturday after the international break.
Ozil set up Olivier Giroud’s opener before Aaron Ramsey scored twice as Arsenal beat Sunderland 3-1 for a third straight win, maintaining its resurgence after a demoralizing opening-day defeat.
Robin van Persie and Wayne Rooney were the scorers for United in a flat 2-0 home win over 10-man Crystal Palace and Spurs began life after Gareth Bale by beating Norwich 2-0 with a brace by Gylfi Sigurdsson.
Manchester City’s mixed start to the season continued with a 0-0 draw at Stoke. Chelsea visits Everton in the late game.
