| Gabriel is the first Arsenal player to score a second-half goal at Tottenham in 7 years |
Not only was Gabriel Jesus's goal in the second half of Arsenal's vital victory over Tottenham important, but it also cemented his place in history. After Alexis Sanchez's historic goal at White Hart Lane in 2016, the Brazilian striker became the first player from Arsenal to score a goal away at Tottenham in the Premier League during the second half. Gabriel's goal was significant because of this statistic, which also emphasizes how challenging it is to score at Tottenham's home field.
In addition to giving Arsenal a crucial three points, Gabriel's goal ended a seven-year run in which no Arsenal player had scored at Tottenham in the second half. This accomplishment highlights his value to the club, his capacity to provide critical support at critical junctures, and his talent for game-winning goals.
The numbers speak for themselves: Gabriel's goal was a historic turning point in the North London derby, demonstrating both the team's tenacity and fortitude.
