At the Emirates Stadium, Eberechi Eze scored an incredible hat-trick as Arsenal thrashed north London rivals Spurs 4-1, moving six points clear atop the Premier League. After Leandro Trossard’s opening goal in his first north London derby, Eze, who was on the verge of joining Spurs before moving to Arsenal in August, gave them a taste of what they had missed.Richarlison’s daring lob from 35 yards out gave Spurs a fleeting chance to pull off an improbable comeback, but Arsenal had already taken a three-goal lead when Eze’s hat-trick goal, expertly curled past Guglielmo Vicario, ended the match. After Mikel Merino had picked out Trossard for the first goal, Eze guided his first goal into the bottom corner with deft movement. Spurs, who shifted to a back five, had only three shots, including Richarlison’s goal, but they were unable to withstand Arsenal’s dominance.
