"Arsenal moved six points clear at the top of the Premier League as a brace from Declan Rice secured a 3-2 win at Bournemouth. The Gunners had their lead at the summit cut to three points by Aston Villa's 3-1 win over Nottingham Forest earlier in the day. And it looked as it it could be a damaging evening for Mikel Arteta's men when Evanilson pounced on a mistake from Gabriel to put Bournemouth ahead early on."
"But Gabriel quickly made amends for his role in that 10th minute opener, lashing in after a blocked shot ricocheted into his path following excellent work from Noni Madueke. Yet Arsenal were unable to immediately build on that equaliser, and they were fortune nine minutes into the second half that David Brooks could only fire across the face of goal following a quickly taken free-kick from the hosts. Rice soon punished them for that profligacy."
