"Emphatic!" - National media reacts as Arsenal suffer major injury blow in Nottingham Forest win

Arsenal moved back ahead of Manchester City in the Premier League table following their 5-0 win against Nottingham Forest.

The Gunners took just five minutes to open the scoring as Gabriel Martinelli continued his brilliant season with a stooping header from Bukayo Saka's cross. The England international's day only lasted around half an hour before he had to be substituted after struggling to shake off an ankle injury.

Mikel Arteta remains hopeful that Saka will be back in action before the World Cup, with Arsenal and England sweating over his fitness. Reiss Nelson came on to replace the 21-year-old and enjoyed an amazing cameo performance as he scored twice and provided an assist, with Thomas Partey and Martin Odegaard rounding off the win.
