“‘I Should Have Scored Four’: Eze Drops Brutal Verdict After Derby Hat-Trick vs Spurs”
Eberechi Eze fired a superb hat-trick as Arsenal beat Tottenham Hotspur 4-1 in Sunday’s North London Derby, yet the former Super Eagles target said he “probably should have scored four.” The midfielder struck just before halftime after connecting with a quick pass from Declan Rice, doubled the lead seconds into the second half, and sealed the win with a powerful 76th-minute finish.
Speaking to the Premier League, Eze said, “I don’t think I’ve ever dreamt of doing that… It is a special day,” but added that it was important “to be relentless.” He also praised Arsenal’s work ethic, saying, “We are focused on ourselves… We will keep working, keep pushing and keep believing.”
Arsenal’s dominance kept them six points clear at the top, with Eze recording the most shots and box touches. His display further cemented his rising status in Arsenal’s title-chasing squad.
