Nketiah’s dominance continued into the second half as he netted two more goals, sealing his hat-trick.

Adding to Arsenal’s triumph, Vieira won a late penalty and calmly converted it, while Tomiyasu wrapped up the scoring with a brilliant finish after a corner.
This extraordinary feat marks Eddie Nketiah’s first Premier League hat-trick and showcases his huge impact in the team. Mikel Arteta’s trust in the young talent certainly paid off.
Nketiah becomes the first Englishman to achieve a Premier League hat-trick for Arsenal since Theo Walcott in May 2015, according to Opta Joe.
Arsenal’s resounding 5-0 victory elevates them to the second position in the Premier League standings, trailing just two points behind Spurs.
