Report: Arsenal 2-1 Tottenham Hotspur

We came from a goal behind to beat Tottenham Hotspur to string together three straight north London derby wins in a row for the first time since 1989, and more importantly close the gap on Liverpool at the top of the Premier League table.

Spurs threatened to claim their first win on our turf in 14 years when son Heung-min out them ahead against the run of play on 25 minutes, but we battled back and netted twice in four minutes just before the interval through a Dominic Solanke own goal and a Leandro Trossard strike.

We dominated our neighbours for the majority of the game including virtually all of the second half, but without netting a killer third goal we had to grind out the win, but it arrived to move us back into second place, and now only four points off the league leaders.
