What Arsenal did to Spurs players pre-game, Xhaka reaction to Partey goal, Smith Rowe tribute

Arsenal are still top of the league after beating Spurs 3-1 in the North London Derby. They begun the game superbly dominating Spurs and pinning them back in their own box. That dominance eventually told as Thomas Partey curled home a stunner from the edge of the box.

Spurs began to fight their way back into the game though and had a few chances on the counter. A catalogue of errors from Aaron Ramsdale, Granit Xhaka and Gabriel ultimately saw the Gunners concede a penalty that Harry Kane was able to slot home as he always seems to do in North London Derbies.

Almost immediately after the break Mikel Arteta's side found themselves back in front however, as Hugo Lloris jumped over Cristian Romero's touch back to him after he had been unable to hold a Bukayo Saka shot, leaving Gabriel Jesus to gratefully scramble home.
