unfortunately arsenal ended up losing 3–1 to manchester united. antonio valencia gave the visitors an early 4th-minute lead then, only 7 minutes later, jesse lingard made it 2–0. the gunners tried to take a goal back before half-time as they dominated much of the first half but united goalkeeper david de gea produced an outstanding performance to stop them doing this. alexandre lacazette hit the bar and just before the break de gea made a point-blank save to prevent united conceding an own goal. during the second half on 49 minutes the gunners finally got a goal back as lacazette made it 2–1 but then, with 27 minutes remaining, lingard scored a third for united as the arsenal defence was exposed during a united counterattack. in the 74th minute paul pogba was sent off for a rash challenge but it never proved to change the match as manchester united won 3–1 and took the three points to manchester. on 7 december arsenal bounced back as they hammered bate borisov 6–0 in the final europa league group stage match with goals by mathieu debuchy, theo walcott, jack wilshere, olivier giroud and mohamed elneny as well as an own goal by one of the bate borisov players. the gunners topped the group and would go on to face swedish team östersund in the round of 32 of the europa league which would be held in february. on 10 december arsenal went to the south coast to face southampton in the league but could only manage a 1–1 draw. three days later the gunners faced west ham united away from home in the premier league but the match yielded no goals. three more days later the gunners played against newcastle united at the emirates in a third consecutive premier league match. the match ended 1–0 to arsenal with mesut özil scoring a stunning volley. on 19 december the gunners played in the fifth round of the league cup against west ham at home. danny welbeck scored the only goal of the match to send the gunners into the semi finals. on 22 december, three days before christmas, arsenal faced liverpool at the emirates in the premier league. philippe coutinho gave the visitors a first half lead then, 7 minutes into the second half, mohamed salah made it 2–0 to liverpool. however arsenal responded in quick fashion as they scored three goals in five minutes. goals by alexis sánchez, granit xhaka and özil turned the match round as they lead 3–2 but then on 71 minutes roberto firmino scored a third liverpool goal to equalise. no further goals occurred as the match ended 3–3 with some describing it as the match of the season. on 28 december the gunners were away to crystal palace in the league and earned a hard-fought 3–2 win with shkodran mustafi scoring the opener and sánchez scoring a brace. arsenal's final match of 2017 was in the premier league at west brom. baggies midfielder james mcclean deflected sánchez's free kick into his own net to give the gunners a 1–0 lead on 83 minutes but then arsenal conceded an 89th-minute penalty which was controversially and wrongly given by referee mike dean as the match concluded as a 1–1 draw. 2017 ended in disappointment for the gunners.
