Gabriel explains Arsenal celebration after North London Derby win over Tottenham

Gabriel scored the only goal in the North London Derby after Arsenal got off to a slow start against Mikel Arteta’.

The absence of Martin Odegaard and Declan Rice proved to be key for Mikel Arteta’s side. Odegaard suffered a suspected ankle injury during the international break while on duty with Norway.

Rice, meanwhile, was suspended following his dismissal at home to Brighton & Hove Albion. As a result, Jorginho played alongside Thomas Partey with Kai Havertz in the attacking midfield role.

Gabriel’s second half header was enough for Arsenal to claim their third win in the Premier League and move one point clear of Liverpool. The Brazilian defender celebrated in an unusual way, copying Memphis Depay’s iconic goal celebration.
