Crystal Palace 1-5 Arsenal: Gabriel Jesus scores twice as Gunners storm to victory at Selhurst Park to move within three points of league leaders Liverpool

Gabriel Jesus continued his return to form by scoring twice as Arsenal picked up a dominant 5-1 win at Crystal Palace to move within three points of Liverpool.

Jesus netted a hat-trick in a midweek Carabao Cup win over Palace, and was back at it again when he fired home from close range inside six minutes to give Arsenal the lead.

But Palace hit back through Ismaila Sarr as he ran at William Saliba before finding the bottom corner. Palace were only back on level terms for three minutes, though, as they failed to clear a corner and Jesus scored his second of the evening in the 14th minute.
