Arsenal continued their winning start to the Premier League season with a 5-0 victory over Leeds United on Saturday afternoon.
All eyes were on new signing Eberechi Eze before the game as the Gunners announced his signing from Crystal Palace in fine style. Mikel Arteta's side then lived up to the occasion as they ran riot against the Whites with Viktor Gyokeres grabbing his first Premier League goals, Jurrien Timber netting a brace and Bukayo Saka also finding the back of the net.
Here's how the action panned out as Arsenal secured a dominant win at the Emirates Stadium.
Arsenal 5-0 Leeds match report
Arsenal started the game the stronger side with Martin Odegaard and Bukayo Saka both going close to grabbing the opener. Leeds then began to trouble their hosts, going close when Pascal Struijk saw a header kept out superbly by David Raya.
The Gunners eventually found the breakthrough 10 minutes before half-time. Declan Rice swung a teasing corner into the box which Jurrien Timber connected with to head his side into the lead. Misfortune struck soon after though as Odegaard was forced off with a shoulder injury, being replaced by Ethan Nwaneri.
The Dutchman was involved once again before the break, finding Saka with a perfect through ball down the right side of the box. Arsenal's number seven fired a thunderous strike past Lucas Perri to double the lead.
Arteta's side didn't let up after the break and grabbed their third just minutes into the second-half. Viktor Gyokeres latched onto an over-the-top pass by Riccardo Calafiori before breaking his way into the Whites' box and finding the bottom corner with a well-taken effort to open his Gunners account.
Another injury was sustained shortly after when Saka went down with an apparent hamstring issue, prompting Arteta to bring Leandro Trossard on in his place.
That didn't deter Arsenal however as moments later, Timber grabbed his second and his side's fourth from yet another corner. His initial effort was kept out but Calafiori kept the chance alive for the Netherlands international to prod into the back of the net.
With his side in cruise control, Arteta could afford to make some changes with Cristhian Mosquera and Max Dowman coming on to make their Premier League debuts. At 15 years and 234 days old, the latter became the second-youngest player in the competiton's history, behind only fellow Hale End graduate Nwaneri.
Handed at least 25 minutes of playing time, the youngster looked promising as he caused plenty of problems for the Leeds defence before winning a penalty in stoppage time, offering the chance for his side to score a fifth.
Gyokeres stepped up to take the spot kick and emphatically fired past Perri to mark his brace and round off a brilliant outing for Arsenal.
With two wins and six goals scored from their opening two games, the Gunners went above rivals Tottenham to go top of the league ahead of Sunday's fixtures.
