Arsenal closed the gap on Premier League leader Liverpool to four points after a 2-1 victory over Tottenham on Wednesday. Mikel Arteta’s team took advantage of Liverpool’s draw with Nottingham Forest on Tuesday, with Leandro Trossard firing the winner in the north London derby at the Emirates Stadium.

Mikel Arteta hailed Arsenal's sensational display after they bounced back from recent cup disappointment to win 2-1 at home to Tottenham and reignite their Premier League title hopes. Arsenal dominated the opening exchanges but failed to make a number of set-pieces count and were hit by sucker-punch in the 25th minute when a deflected effort by Spurs captain Son Heung-min found the bottom corner.
