Arsenal Outclass Spurs to Go Five Points Clear

Last Updated : 23-Feb-2026 by Footymad

Mikel Arteta’s side made a massive statement in the title race yesterday, dismantling Tottenham 4-1 in the North London derby.

Eberechi Eze haunted his former rivals with a clinical brace, while Viktor Gyökeres also struck twice to restore Arsenal's five-point lead at the summit.

Despite a brief scare when Randal Kolo Muani equalised just after half-time, the Gunners showed "authority and composure" to capitalise on their dominance and silence the home crowd at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
