LONDON (AP) — Arsenal conceded a goal after just nine seconds and went 2-0 down in the second half and still stayed on track for the English Premier League title. Substitute Reiss Nelson scored the winner with a fierce volley in injury time as Arsenal recovered to beat Bournemouth 3-2 and maintain a five-point lead atop the league. The Gunners had to dig deep for this one after being caught out straight from the kickoff. Philip Billing put the visitors ahead after just nine seconds to stun the Emirates Stadium crowd, many of whom had not even reached their seats yet.
