Son Heung-min hit Arsenal with a sucker punch midway through the first half, a poorly-cleared cross fell to the feet of the South Korean, whose shot then deflected off William Saliba to beat David Raya. However, it would be a Spurs player to give Arsenal a gift as Dominic Solanke deflected the ball into his own net from a corner.

Leandro Trossard rekindled Arsenal's Premier League title hopes with the winner as they came from a goal down to beat north London rivals Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 at home on Wednesday.

Arsenal responded before half-time, as Gabriel’s header went in off Dominic Solanke after a typically accurate Declan Rice corner delivery and Leandro Trossard’s strike then found the bottom corner, for what proved to be the winner.
