Arsenal opened up a four point gap at the top of the Premier League table after beating Tottenham Hotspur 3-1 in the North London Derby. The Gunners became the first team to inflict a league defeat on Antonio Conte's side.
The win for Arsenal made it seven wins from eight games this season and continued their 100 per cent record at the Emirates Stadium this term. They haven't lost at home to Spurs in the league since 2010.
Thomas Partey, who was a major injury doubt for the game, gave Arsenal the lead after 20 minutes with a sublime strike, before Harry Kane equalised from the penalty spot on the half-hour mark. Gabriel Jesus punished a mix-up between Hugo Lloris and Cristian Romero to give the Brazilian his eighth goal contribution in as many games, with Granit Xhaka continuing his fantastic start to the season by making it 3-1, shortly after Emerson Royal was sent off for a reckless challenge.
