The game between Arsenal Football Club and Tottenham Hotspur ended 2- 0, in favor of Arsenal. This highly anticipated game got Arsenal fans jubilating as early as the first half when they had already bagged 2 goals, with their opponents still trailing.

The own goal from Hugo Lloris and a brilliant finish from Martin Odegaard is what put Arsenal in the driving seat and by the end of the first half, the gunners were leading.
