EPL: Saka equals Thierry Henry's record during Arsenal's 1-1 draw with Brighton.

Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka equalled club legend Thierry Henry's record on Saturday by assisting in their Premier League 1-1 draw with Brighton.

Mikel Arteta's side's perfect start to the Premier League season came to an end when they failed to overcome Brighton at Emirates Stadium.

Saka became the first Arsenal player to assist in three consecutive league games to begin the season since Henry.



The England international had helped Kai Havertz in their opening Premier League game of the season against Wolves.

He also helped Thomas Partey last weekend against Aston Villa.

However, with assisting against Brighton this weekend, Saka matched Henry's record, which he set in the 2004-05 season, according to EuroFoot.
