In their biggest pre-season statement of intent this summer, Arsenal hit Sevilla for six with a dazzling performance in the Emirates Cup on Saturday afternoon.
Gabriel Jesus stole the show with a hat-trick on his first Gunners appearance in front of his home fans, while Bukayo Saka scored twice to send a reminder about his frightening potential. In truth, the game was over with less than 20 minutes played thanks to Arsenal's astonishing flurry of four goals in 10 minutes.
Jesus and Saka found the back of the net twice each during the early stages to leave a Sevilla side defensively-depleted but still boasting plenty of quality shellshocked in the extreme. After the interval, the game settled down somewhat but Arsenal added to their commanding advantage thanks to another poacher's goal from Jesus and a contribution from substitute Eddie Nketiah.
