Zubimendi opened the scoring to set the tone for the evening before Gyökeres struck twice to put the result beyond doubt, as Arsenal showcased their attacking depth and tactical discipline.

The victory saw Arsenal extend their lead at the top of the Premier League table to nine points, further strengthening their title credentials as the season enters a crucial phase.

However, Mikel Arteta’s side have played one game more than closest challengers Manchester City, who are set to face a tough test away at Anfield against Liverpool in their next fixture.

With momentum firmly on their side, Arsenal will be keen to maintain their consistency as the title race intensifies, while Sunderland were left to reflect on a difficult outing against the league leaders.
