For his goal, the Brazilian pulled away to score from a tight angle after Xhaka couldn’t finish from close range. He now has 10 goals to his name, having been unable to play part of the season with his new club due to a knee injury suffered during the World Cup. He had surgery and resumed playing recently, which was a huge lift for the team.
With this victory, Arsenal, at 78 points, temporarily regain the lead of the Premier League, since Man City, at 76 points, are one game behind and will only play tomorrow against West Ham.
Also, Gabriel Magalhães played almost the entire game. He was substituted for Holding when it was all sorted out. As for the last Brazilian of the Gunners, Martinelli, he came into play in the 59th, in the place of the Belgian Trossard.
The suspense lasts in the Premier League as Manchester City faces West Ham this Wednesday (3). A win puts the Citizens back at the top of the table.
