Gabriel Jesus' 13-minute Arsenal cameo had everything as exciting new partnership emerges

Three goals, a clean sheet, and a five-point lead at the top of the Premier League table still intact. It turned out to be the perfect response from Arsenal to Manchester City's win over Crystal Palace.

But perhaps the biggest positive to come from the victory against Fulham was the return of Gabriel Jesus after three months on the sidelines as a result of undergoing knee surgery. Named amongst the substitutes at Craven Cottage, it was the first time that the Brazilian had made a matchday squad for the Gunners since before the World Cup.

Given the visitors were 3-0 up heading into the final quarter of an hour thanks to first-half goals from Gabriel Magalhaes, Gabriel Martinelli and Martin Odegaard, the stage was set for Jesus to mark his return to action and football.london kept tabs on his 13-minute cameo against the Cottagers.
