Gyokeres scores his first goals for Arsenal in 5-0 rout of Leeds, impressive Tottenham beats City
- Arsenal defeated newly promoted Leeds United 5-0 at the Emirates Stadium in their first home game of the 2025 Premier League season on Saturday.
- The victory followed injury setbacks to key players Martin Odegaard and Bukayo Saka, with Odegaard substituted in the first half and Saka leaving with a hamstring issue, adding strain to attacking options.
- Viktor Gyokeres opened his Arsenal goal account just three minutes after the break following an earlier missed opportunity, while teenager Max Dowman, who became one of the youngest players to feature in the Premier League at 15 years and several months old, came off the bench and earned a late penalty that Gyokeres successfully converted during stoppage time.
- Manager Mikel Arteta hailed Dowman's debut as 'special' and Arsenal confirmed Eberechi Eze's £68 million transfer from Crystal Palace just before kickoff, unveiling him to the fans who gave a raucous reception.
- The comprehensive win and introduction of young talents like Dowman and new signing Eze suggest Arsenal aims to maintain momentum in their fourth pursuit of a Premier League title after a 21-year wait.
