Arsenal recorded an impressive 4–1 win over Tottenham Hotspur in the north London derby at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with Viktor Gyokeres and Eberechi Eze both scoring twice.
Arsenal started the match strongly and controlled much of the first half. They took the lead in the 33rd minute when Eberechi Eze controlled Bukayo Saka’s cross and finished well past Guglielmo Vicario.
Tottenham responded quickly. Just two minutes later, Randal Kolo Muani equalised after winning the ball from Declan Rice and firing past goalkeeper David Raya.
Arsenal came out with more intensity after the break. Gyokeres restored the lead with a powerful strike from the edge of the box early in the second half. On the hour mark, Eze scored his second goal after a loose ball fell to him inside the area.
Tottenham tried to get back into the game and had chances, including an effort from Richarlison that Raya cleared off the line. However, Gyokeres sealed the win in injury time, holding off a defender before scoring his second goal of the match.
The result keeps Arsenal five points clear at the top of the Premier League table. Tottenham, who were managed by Igor Tudor for the first time, remain in the lower half of the table and continue their struggles at home.
Arsenal will return to action next Sunday with a home match against Chelsea, while Tottenham will look to bounce back in their upcoming fixtures.
