at Ashburton Grove

ARSENAL overwhelmed and outclassed sorry Spurs 3-1 at Ashburton Grove to prove, once again, that north London is red.

Mikel Arteta’s Gunners blew away their bitter rivals with three goals during a frenetic opening 45 minutes to win the north London derby at a canter.

Goals from Emile Smith Rowe, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Bukayo Saka swamped Nuno Espirito Santo’s side, who managed a late consolation through Son Heung Min.
