Shakira Surprises Arsenal with a Special Message After Crucial Brentford Victory

Music icon Shakira took to social media to send a surprising message to Arsenal after their 1-0 win against Brentford on Saturday. The Gunners secured a crucial victory over the Bees in a Premier League showdown at the Gtech Community Stadium.

Arsenal initially believed they had taken the lead in the first half when Leandro Trossard found the net from close range. However, VAR determined that the Belgian international had been offside in the build-up, keeping the scoreline level until the final 15 minutes of the match.

In the dying moments of the game, substitute Kai Havertz broke the deadlock and secured a crucial victory for Mikel Arteta's Arsenal side. The German's header found the back of the net, propelling Arsenal to the top of the table. Earlier in the day, title contenders Manchester City and Liverpool had played out a 1-1 draw at the Etihad Stadium.

This marked Havertz's second goal for Arsenal since his transfer from Chelsea in the summer. The ecstatic away fans even created a chant for him, using the melody of Shakira's 2010 hit song "Waka Waka." Shakira herself took notice and shared a video of the chant on her Instagram, captioning it with "Waka wake @arsenal style."

With the victory, Arsenal climbed to the top of the league table, now holding a one-point lead over second-placed Manchester City and a two-point advantage over third-placed Liverpool. This result added to the excitement and significance of Arsenal's win, positioning them as early contenders in the title race.
