Arsenal, like a phoenix reborn from the ashes in the English Premier League's London derby extravaganza, wrote another brilliant story after the thrilling 3-2 win in the EFL Cup with a 5-1 come-from-behind win away to Crystal Palace in the early hours of Sunday (22nd). Known as Jesus, Gabil Jetsis, like a god from heaven, scored two goals in a row and pierced through the Crystal Palace defense five times in three days, preserving the dream of the title for Arsenal. Up to now, Arsenal are undefeated in 10 matches and have been crowned the London champions!
Jeseys, who scored three consecutive breakthroughs against Crystal Palace in the EFL Cup, continued to stay on fire in this game. He scored a clever goal just six minutes into the game, but Crystal Palace soon equalized five minutes later with a brilliant long-range finish from Ismail Nashay. However, Jesus was undeterred and was in hot form again three minutes later, scoring Crystal Palace's fifth goal in two consecutive matches when he deftly took an assist from Thomas Birdie from a corner.
Arsenal's goals in the 38th minute were all scored by Jesees. A header hit the post but was eventually added to by Xaviers. In the second half, Gabriele Martinelli and Dylan Rice scored to seal a 5-1 win, and Opta data shows that Arsenal became the first team in English top-flight history to score five or more goals on at least six occasions a year, a statistic that allayed concerns about the team's lack of firepower.
It is worth noting that Arsenal have won 8 and lost 2 of the 2024 Premier League's London derbies, becoming the first team since Chelsea in 2005 to go undefeated throughout the year. The Adidas leader said after the game: We made history, but our goal is to turn this honor into a championship trophy. It's not easy to play the same opponent in three consecutive days, but we performed steadily and satisfactorily.
