Arsenal recorded their first north London derby double for almost decade to move eight points clear at the top of the Premier League with a 2-0 win over Tottenham on Sunday.
Hugo Lloris put through his own net to give the Gunners the lead following Bukayo Saka's cross, before Martin Odegaard doubled their advantage with a terrific long-range effort. After a dominant first-half performance from the Gunners, Tottenham slowly grew into the game and forced Aaron Ramsdale into a series of excellent stops as Harry Kane and Ryan Sessegnon both went close.
But Mikel Arteta's side showed grit and steel to hold out for their first league double over Spurs since the 2013/14 season as the Gunners extended their lead above second-place Manchester City. There was drama after the game when Aaron Ramsdale was involved in a skirmish with Richarlison, before a Tottenham fan climbed onto the hoardings surrounding the pitch and kicked Arsenal's goalkeeper.
