Gabriel scored Arsenal’s winning goal on Saturday as the Gunners defeated Fulham in the English Premier League.

The Gunners had over 70 per cent ball possession to grab a deserved win over Fulham.

Arsenal fell behind as Fulham took the lead a few minutes into the second half at the Emirates Stadium.

Mitrovic capitalised on Gabriel’s mistake, firing in Fulham’s first goal in the 54th minute. But Martin Odegaard levelled for the Gunners courtesy of a pass from Bukayo Saka.

Gabriel, whose mistake gave Fulham their first goal, redeemed his image, scoring Arsenal’s winning goal in the 85th minute.

The Gunners are now top of the EPL table with Saturday’s win, with four wins in four games, maintaining their perfect start to the season.
