Arsenal make it two on the bounce and claim maximum points out of possible six. The Gunners saw Leicester City off thanks to another Gabriel Jesus masterclass.
The Brazilian midfielder claimed the man of the match award with two goals and two assists, stealing the entire show.
Granit Xhaka and Gabriel Martinelli were also on the scoresheet for Arsenal. It was unfortunate for William Saliba as he saw his back pass bounce into his own goal.
James Maddison scored Leicester’s second goal and Brendan Rodgers’ men ended the match with a disappointing defeat.
It was a well deserved victory for Gabriel Jesus and Arsenal. The Gunners look sharper than they have been over the past few years and the season looks to be a promising one.
Here is how the players of both teams fared in the match:

Ramsdale (6) – Zinchenko (7) – Saliba (6.5) – Gabriel (6.5) – White (6.5) – Party (7) – Xhaka (8) – Odegaard (7) – Martinelli (8) – Saka (7.5) – Jesus (9)
