Arsenal moved eight points clear at the top of the Premier League table with a 2-0 win over Spurs in a pulsating North London derby at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Mikel Arteta’s side, seeking to capitalise on Manchester City’s defeat to Manchester United on Saturday, went ahead when Hugo Lloris clumsily spilled a Bukayo Saka cross into his own net.
Martin Odegaard then capped a dominant first-half display with a stunning long-range effort which ultimately sealed Arsenal’s first Premier League away win over Spurs since 2014.
The situation was quickly diffused, however, leaving Arsenal to celebrate a victory which puts them in a commanding position in the Premier League title race and leaves their north London rivals five points behind fourth-placed Manchester United in fifth.
