Arsenal secured a resounding 5-1 victory over Manchester City, with goals from Martin Ødegaard, Thomas Partey, Myles Lewis-Skelly, Kai Havertz, and Ethan Nwaneri.
Notably, Nwaneri and Lewis-Skelly's goals marked the first instance since April 2007 where two players aged 18 or younger scored for the same team in a Premier League match. The last occurrence was during Everton's clash against Fulham, with James Vaughan and Victor Anichebe finding the net.
Besides, at 17 years and 318 days old, Nwaneri became the second-youngest player to score against a Pep Guardiola-led team, following Jude Bellingham.
This also marked Arsenal's first dominant Premier League win over Manchester City since October 24, 2010, when the Gunners triumphed 3-0 away.
