"Eberechi Eze scored the first hat-trick in a Premier League North London derby as Arsenal crushed Tottenham 4-1 to move six points clear at the top of the table. Eze has admitted to rejecting interest from Spurs prior to swapping Crystal Palace for the Emirates Stadium in August, and he left his former suitors reeling after a sensational individual showing. It was Leandro Trossard that scored Arsenal's opener in the 36th minute, though, after they penned Spurs back in the early stages."
"Eze then took centre-stage, doubling Arsenal's lead five minutes later with the aid of another slight deflection off Van de Ven, having squirmed between Joao Palhinha and Rodrigo Bentancur on the edge of the area. Eze got his second goal just 35 seconds into the second half, finding the far corner on his left foot, with Spurs not attempting a shot of any description until the 55th minute."
