Arsenal shifted away from their typical reliance on Saka and Odegaard, attacking from multiple angles against Tottenham. Eberechi Eze particularly exploited pockets of space in front of the Spurs defense, creating opportunities for teammates.
Viktor Gyokeres capitalized on the increased space, delivering a man-of-the-match performance with two quality goals. His effective play on the left flank, reminiscent of his style at Sporting CP, silenced doubters and proved crucial in the derby victory.
