Arsenal's comprehensive victory marked their largest away league win at Tottenham for 48 years. Eze's opener ended an 11-game league goal drought and made him only the second player to score 4+ goals in North London derbies in a single campaign, matching Ted Drake's 1934-35 feat. His five goals against Spurs this season place him fifth in the all-time Premier League derby scorers list, tied with legends like Thierry Henry.
Gyokeres' eight goals across all competitions lead the Premier League in 2026. The win also represented a historic achievement for Arsenal, becoming only the second time they've beaten Tottenham by 3+ goals in both league meetings of a season. For Tottenham, Igor Tudor became the first manager to lose his first Premier League game in over a decade, ending a run of nine previous managers remaining unbeaten in their debut fixture.
