Gabriel Magalhaes scored the winner as Arsenal sealed a 1-0 victory over Tottenham in the north London derby on Sunday.
Gabriel’s goal was the difference in north London Arsenal condemned arch-rivals Tottenham to more derby day misery with a 1-0 victory in a wild north London scrap. Gabriel Magalhaes’ thumping header after 64 minutes sealed three points for the Gunners on enemy turf with Spurs again undone by a set piece. Without Martin Odegaard and Declan Rice in midfield, Arsenal stood strong as Spurs failed to build on a bright start to the contest.
Much to the frustration of Ange Postecoglou, the same old problems persisted on Sunday afternoon with Arsenal fans in the away end sensing history could repeat itself. Gabriel rose above the Spurs defence to head home Bukayo Saka’s wicked delivery left the Tottenham goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario flapping with Gabriel easing away from Cristian Romero to drill his header home and silence the home crowd.
