Arsenal produced a commanding performance to beat Tottenham Hotspur 4-1 at the Emirates Stadium, with Eberechi Eze and Viktor Gyökeres both scoring twice. The victory eases pressure on Mikel Arteta's side, who moved five points clear of Manchester City in the Premier League title race.
Eze opened the scoring in the first half, volleying home after a deflection off Conor Gallagher. Tottenham equalised through Randal Kolo Muani, who robbed Declan Rice before slotting past David Raya. However, Eze restored Arsenal's lead just after the hour mark, effectively ending any hope of a Spurs revival.
Gyökeres, who had been a persistent threat, added Arsenal's third with a powerful finish after the Spurs defence switched off. He then sealed the win in stoppage time, bursting through to beat Guglielmo Vicario. The result marked only Tottenham's second league win in 18 matches, deepening their relegation fears under interim manager Igor Tudor.
Arsenal had earlier survived a scare when Kolo Muani missed a chance to equalise, but they dominated proceedings. Mikel Arteta's decision to recall Eze paid dividends, as the midfielder ended his own poor run of form. The Gunners now look ahead with renewed confidence in their title pursuit.
