It is 18 years since Arsenal opened the famous Emirates Stadium in London. The Gunners have seen wins, draws and defeats after leaving Highbury during Arsene Wenger’s era.

The North London club, in their 500th game at the Emirates, defeated Manchester United 2-0 to close the gap to seven points against leaders Liverpool.

Arsenal scored twice through their routine corner kicks, with goals from Timber and Saliba in the second half sealing the victory.

The Emirates Stadium is once again becoming a fortress as the Gunners normally record wins recently compared to the previous four or five years.

The win means that for the first time, Arsenal have beaten Manchester United four times in a row with Mikel Arteta at the wheel.

In other games on the night, leaders Liverpool drew 3-3 at St. James Park, with Isak, Gordon and Schar scoring for the Magpies while Jones and Salah (brace ) scored for Liverpool.

Chelsea continued their fine form with a 5-1 pulverising of Southampton at the St Mary’s Stadium. Disasi, Nkunku, Madueke, Palmer and Sancho were the scorers for the Blues.

Manchester City ended their seven-game winless run with a 3-0 massacre of Nottingham Forest. Bernardo Silva, Kevin De Bruyne and Jeremy Doku were the scorers for the Citizens.

Aston Villa beat Brentford 3-1 as Everton thrashed Wolverhampton Wanderers 4-0.
