Gabriel Jesus guides Arsenal to a victory over Leicester
New summer signing Gabriel Jesus starred as Arsenal secured a commanding win over Leicester. The Brazilian forward netted a brace in the first half to help the Gunners secure their second win of the season in as many games.
Jesus’ first goal was an audacious chip from inside the box which looped over the top of Leicester goalkeeper Danny Ward. His second goal was a header from close range at the back post.
Gabriel Martinelli and Xhaka were the other goalscorers for the Gunners.
Arsenal’s next Premier League game is against newly-promoted AFC Bournemouth on Saturday, August 20, at the Vitality Stadium.
