'Spurs don't want to lose 3-0 at home': Saka praises Arsenal for hard-fought win

"That last 20 minutes wasn’t nice, but it was worth it," said a delighted Bukayo Saka at his post-match interview.

"Obviously, we know it’s a big derby, they [Tottenham Hotspur] don’t want to just lost 3-0 at home.

"So once they got one, the crowd was up, they were up & the momentum shifted their way, but all the boys, we fought until the end."

The Arsenal winger, who scored the second goal in the 3-2 win, added: "We know what it means to the fans & what it means to us, so we’re delighted.

"It means everything!"

The win means Arsenal are now three points ahead of Manchester City at the top of the Premier League table.

They could close that gap, depending on how they fare against Nottingham Forest.
