The Gunners went into the game with the opportunity to go 10 points clear of Manchester City. They had to work hard for the result in the end.

Viktor Gyokeres eventually broke the deadlock in the 89th minute, but it all came about from a sensational cross from Dowman in the lead-up.

Piero Hincapie provided the assist for an easy tap-in for the Swede to score his 16th goal of the campaign for the north London giants.

Dowman went on to score a goal of his own before the final whistle.

With goalkeeper Jordan Pickford up for a corner in the dying seconds, the teenager ran past a couple of defenders before tapping home his maiden league goal for Arsenal.

In the process, the Gunners sensation has entered the Premier League history books. He has become the youngest-ever goalscorer in the division at 16 years and 73 days.
