Tottenham – Arsenal 2:3, Arsenal beat Tottenham in the derby and leads the table by four points

Arsenal took the lead in the 15th minute thanks to an own goal by Höjbjerg, who headed Saka’s corner kick into his own net. The home team reacted with increased activity, which resulted in Van de Ven hitting the post and equalizing, but VAR finally revealed a close offside. Instead, the visitors took a two-goal lead in the 27th minute when Saka headed home from the break. The English winger scored his fifteenth goal of the year and broke his personal record from last season.

Seven minutes before halftime, the guests were already leading by three goals. Again they got through from the corner, this time Havertz directed the ball into the net. The Gunners have already scored 16 goals from corner kicks this season and equaled West Bromwich’s record from the 2016/17 season.

In the second half, Tottenham reduced thanks to a huge mistake by the goalkeeper Raya, who encouraged the home defender Romero to score with a pass. Son Hung-min scored a dramatic finish in the 87th minute with a converted penalty, but Spurs failed to equalize.

Manchester City won the league for the fifth time in a row and went 19 games unbeaten in the competition. He took the lead in the 32nd minute thanks to Guardiola’s header. Coach Guardiola had to replace goalkeeper Ederson at halftime, who had shoulder problems after a collision with Boly. Ortega replaced him in the second half. In the 71st minute, Haaland secured the win for the defending champions and became the top scorer with 21 goals.

De Bruyne assisted on both of the visitors’ goals. The Belgian registered more than one assist in one game for the 18th time, which no other player in Premier League history has achieved. Nottingham are without a win for the fourth time in a row and are one point clear of the relegation places with three rounds to go.
