Gabriel Jesus and Bukayo Saka run riot as Arsenal destroy Sevilla - 5 talking points

Arsenal plundered four goals in 10 minutes as they pummelled Sevilla to claim the Emirates Cup on Saturday afternoon and heighten anticipation for the fast-approaching Premier League season.

Bukayo Saka opened the scoring in the 10th minute with a cool penalty he won after a clumsy shove in the back from Karim Rekik, with Martin Odegaard instrumental in creating the chance. Gabriel Jesus doubled the lead just three minutes later with a poacher's finish from close range after fine work from Gabriel Martinelli and Granit Xhaka.

The Gunners all but put the game to bed with just a quarter of an hour on the clock as Jesus latched onto a whipped cross from Martinelli to poke beyond goalkeeper Bono and send the Emirates wild. Adding to Arsenal's delight and Sevilla's woe, Saka pounced on some dire passing by the visiting defence to grab his second with 19 minutes played.
