Bukayo Saka was the hero on a challenging night in the Arctic Circle, firing home in an occasionally-nervy 1-0 win over FK Bodø/Glimt that maintained the Gunners’ 100% record in Group A of the UEFA Europa League.A graveyard of several bigger teams last season, the Aspmyra Stadion greeted a much-rotated Arsenal side with fireworks, and the artificial surface initially made the Premier League leaders look like damp squibs, with Bodø enjoying much early momentum. But the Gunners grew as a unit and went ahead through Bukayo Saka in the 24th minute, when the England winger found space on the right after a succession of passes and played a deft one-two with Fábio Vieira, before darting into the area and finishing via a deflection.
