Sparks are flying in the London derby "championship" has appeared

After an off-season, the English Premier League started again. In the London derby, Arsenal welcomed Hottentot Hot spur at home. In the end, Arsenal scored goals from Thomas, Jesus and Aka to beat their opponents 3-1 in a sparkling match. In the standings, Art eta's team has won 7 and lost 1 out of 8 matches, with 21 points, and remains in the leading position. Regardless of the results of the other matches in this round, no team can replace Arsenal's top position at least until the next round of matches starts.

From the perspective of the lineup, Arsenal does not have obvious injury problems, and Art-eta played as much as he could. In the goalkeeper position, Rams dale is still the most stable link. In the back line, Gabriel and Saliva, who has been playing very well this season, are partnered as center backs. At left back, Chernenko got his first start, while Ben White continued to play at right back, ahead of Jiang Tomato. In the midfield, Thomas and Dacha were paired up at the back, with Martinet and Saks on the left and right wingers respectively, while Underdog continued to play at the front, topped by Jesus, who has been scoring goals this season. Hottentot Hot spur continued to play a 343 formation, with players such as Kane, Son and Richardson all starting.

After the match started, Arsenal with the advantage of home field basically controlled the situation on the field, and Hottentot Hot spur could only rely on defensive counter-attack to threaten Arsenal's goal more often than not. However, from the situation in the first half, the Hottentot Hot spur defense was backed up, and the players stood relatively close to each other, leaving very little space for the attackers. In this situation, although Arsenal's overall formation was pressed to the vicinity of Hottentot's box, they basically could only pass around the outside and could not create enough chances in the opponent's box. Ben White on the right side tried to finish a couple of 45 degree angle crosses, but such attacks did not work due to Arsenal's lack of high points in the opponent's box.

On the left side, Martinez relied more on his individual ability to break through, but his efficiency was average. Coupled with Chernenko's lack of contribution at the offensive end, the team's threat on this side mainly came from Jesus who pulled to the side. The goal that gave Arsenal the lead in the first half was not because of the great chances they created in the attacking end, but mainly because of Thomas' miracle goal. After receiving a cross from Ben White, the back-rower "blossomed" with a powerful shot to help Arsenal make the score 1:0.

After Arsenal broke the deadlock, Hottentot Hot spur started to put more efforts on the attacking side. Although Arsenal was still the dominant side on the field, Hottentot Hot spur's defensive counter-attack started to become a bit sharp. Son, in particular, used his excellent footwork and speed to set up several counter-attacks. The equalizer came from Sun's counter-attacking chances. Arsenal's defense was in disarray as Richardson burst into the box, and a defensive error by Gabriel gave Spurs a penalty kick. However, overall, Hottentot's form was not good enough, and they were a little distracted in both positional and defensive play. At the end of the first half, Jesus had a very nice breakthrough on the left side, and after breaking through the opponent's defense, his shot was parried by Lori.

However, after the start of the second half, Jesus soon helped Arsenal regain the lead. He finished smartly in front of the goal to help Arsenal add a second goal. Romero's reaction was much too slow compared to the nimble Jesus. Arsenal, having regained the lead, were in full swing and their attacking play was more fluid. The overwhelmed Spurs team was under more pressure on the defensive end, and Emerson's red card was basically a sign that the game was over. Aka then scored again for Arsenal. Martinet was in the front of the opponent's box, and passed the ball to Aka, who then broke into the box and fired a low shot into the goal, making the final score 3:1.

Judging from the circumstances of this game, beating Hottentot Hot spur might be the key game for Arsenal to enter the title race this season. From the matches already played this season, Arsenal's winning percentage against weak teams is excellent, but their ability in strong matches has not been sufficiently tested, and a victory in this match will further strengthen the confidence of Arsenal players to a great extent. It can be said that Arsenal has the initial appearance of a champion. Perhaps after the end of this season, the Premier League trophy will come to the Emirates Stadium after many years of absence.
