Arsenal strengthened their Premier League title challenge with a commanding 4–1 victory over fierce north London rivals Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday, ending a brief dip in form in emphatic fashion.
The win was inspired by a scintillating performance from midfielder Eberechi Eze, whose brace dismantled Tottenham’s defence and underlined Arsenal’s attacking dominance. His goals proved decisive as the Gunners regained momentum after a damaging two-match winless run.
Under the guidance of manager Mikel Arteta, Arsenal delivered a composed and ruthless display, combining high-intensity pressing with clinical finishing. The victory was further sealed by a brace from striker Viktor Gyokeres, whose goals highlighted Arsenal’s cutting edge in the final third.
The result moves Arsenal five points clear at the top of the Premier League table, opening daylight between themselves and second-placed Manchester City. It also delivered a psychological boost in one of the league’s most fiercely contested derbies.
For Tottenham, the defeat was a sobering setback, as defensive lapses and a lack of midfield control allowed Arsenal to dictate the tempo for long spells. Despite home support, Spurs struggled to contain Arsenal’s fluid attack.
With momentum restored and rivals kept at bay, Arsenal will view the derby triumph as a potential turning point in their quest for the Premier League crown, sending a clear statement of intent as the title race intensifies.
