Arsenal somehow beat Leeds 1-0 to go back to the top of the league in a crazy match that had a number of talking points. The drama began just a minute in when the game was delayed by 40 minutes due to a power cut that halted goal line technology and the VAR feed at Stockley Park.
Mikel Arteta admitted that the delay did affect his side, and when play resumed, it was Leeds who came out well on top. Somehow though, Bukayo Saka put the Gunners in front following an awful cross-field ball from Rodrigo.
Arsenal would then go on to hold what they had for the remainder of the match despite conceding a penalty and several clear-cut chances. Crucial to the win was a superb display from Gabriel, who was at the centre of some controversy late on when referee Chris Kavanaugh awarded a penalty and showed him a red card for kicking out at Patrick Bamford before VAR overturned. Unsurprisingly the Brazilian centre-back was a hot topic of conversation in football.london's new Views from the Clock End podcast.
