This has been an end-to-end game so far with Arsenal showing no signs of fatigue from Thursday’s exertions so far.
But it was Martinelli who broke the deadlock after half an hour after an excellent cross field from Saka gave our Brazilian the space to slip past his defender to smash it into the net.
I can see that 8 point gap opening up! Although the Gunners will have to tighten up at the back a bit…

It has been a routing Arsenal 2-0 first half home Epl match win lead over the managerless Crystal Palace team. This first half 2-0 lead in the game by the Gunners over the Eagles is not unexpected but expected to happen in the match by us Gooners. And I think the Gunners will increase the tally in the game on the Eagles as the match pans on in the 2nd half to beat them 4-0 at full-time.
A commanding display from the team
Good spirit among the team thumps up for Xhaka
