Gabriel Jesus scored his first goals for six months as Arsenal maintained control of the Premier League title race with a 4-1 defeat of relegation-threatened Leeds United on Saturday.
Jesus, starting a league game for the first time since returning from a knee injury last month, converted a 35th-minute penalty after being clipped in the box by Luke Ayling.
Leeds had troubled Arsenal in the opening period but once Jesus put the hosts ahead it was relatively plain sailing as they restored their eight-point lead over champions Man City. Leeds remain in a precarious position in 16th place with 26 points, a point above 18th-placed Leicester City. "Everyone is playing so well. It is easy to come back. The most important thing is that everyone that has come in has played good," Jesus said.
