Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta has hailed Bukayo Saka for producing a “magic moment” as they hammered Everton 4-0 on Wednesday.
Saka put the Gunners 1-0 up before Gabriel Martinelli doubled the lead before half-time.
Martin Odegaard grabbed the third and Martinelli completed his brace with 10 minutes left.
The result means Mikel Arteta’s men are now five points clear of Manchester City in second place.
“We had some difficulties at the start. They are difficult to play against. Once we scored the first goal, the game unlocked.
“We needed a magic moment and Bukayo produced that. After that we grew and deserved to win the game,” Arteta told BBC Sport.
