On Saturday, the top of the Premier League was maintained by the Gunners, who defeated their north London rivals, Spurs, by a score of three to one.
Thomas Partey opened the scoring with a superb curled strike from the edge of the 18-yard-box following a softly weighted layoff from Ben White, but Harry Kane equalized with a well-taken penalty at the end of the first half.

Despite being left out of the Brazil squad, Gabriel Jesus scored his fifth goal of the season after Spurs looked sluggish after the restart. He punished a mistake from goalkeeper Hugo Lloris, who parried a strike from a different player only to see it roll under his body and allow Jesus to pounce for an easy finish.
After the hour mark, Spurs' task was made more difficult by the fact that defender Emerson Royal was sent off for a reckless tackle.
Granit Xhaka extended the lead with a powerful finish that made Lloris powerless.
The result means that Manchester City will face a local derby against Manchester United on Sunday in order to stay top of the league.
The club is in a good position, Arteta said. It makes you feel good. We are concentrating. The team is hungry and humble. We haven't done anything yet and there's still a lot of work to be done. That's the way we're going.
Arteta said that he would leave that to you guys. We are very happy with where we are. You cannot control emotion because it is related. We don't pay much attention to what the table says.
Spurs must wait for the reverse fixture to end their 12-year wait for a win in the derby.
Xhaka said that they were the better team from the beginning. "After we conceded we were struggling, but in the second half we were much better, and I am so happy to score my first derby goal and help the team to win."
