Arsenal vs Crystal Palace LIVE: Premier League result and reaction as Gunners net five at Emirates Stadium

Arsenal 5-0 Crystal Palace: Gabriel, Trossard and Martinelli all scored as the Gunners ran rampant

Arteta says Arsenal revived for title push after Dubai camp

Arsenal earned themselves a much needed win with a 5-0 hammering of Crystal Palace at the Emirates Stadium in Saturday’s early Premier League kick off.

From the start the Gunners looked to take control but seemed nervous and tentative after their recent troubles in front of goal. The breakthrough came from a set piece, Gabriel rising highest at the back post to nod Arsenal ahead. The second goal came in a similar fashion. Bukayo Saka swung in another corner, Gabriel won the header but this time sent the ball into Dean Henderson for an own goal.

The Gunners went into the break two goals to the good and grew in confidence. Leandro Trossard ended his goal drought with a fine finish to complete a counter attack before Gabriel Martinelli came off the bench to score two goals late in stoppage time to put the icing on the cake.
