Arsenal moved six points clear at the top of the Premier League after a thrilling 3-2 win over Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium. Declan Rice scored twice in the second half to overturn an early deficit, with Gabriel Magalhães also netting after his initial error had gifted the hosts the lead.
Bournemouth took the lead after just 10 minutes when Gabriel's misplaced pass fell to Evanilson, who fired past David Raya. However, Gabriel atoned for his mistake six minutes later, finishing from close range after a scramble following a cross from Noni Madueke.
Rice put Arsenal ahead in the 54th minute with a fine strike from the edge of the area, then added a second with 19 minutes remaining, tapping in after a low cross from substitute Bukayo Saka. Bournemouth pulled one back five minutes later through Eli Junior Kroupi's long-range effort, but Arsenal held on for their fifth consecutive league win.
Bournemouth, who started November second in the table, are now 11 matches without a victory – their longest winless run in the top flight – and sit just three places above the relegation zone.
