The Brazilian was looking to score another hat-trick against Crystal Palace, but Lacroix's timely slide sends the ball out for a corner.

Intensity on the benches

Crystal Palace looked for a reaction through Mateta, but Arsenal's defence, made up of Saliba and Gabriel, closed down in a great way.

The first 15 minutes were madness, something that Arsenal has accustomed us to in their games full of goals. A similar case occurred a few weeks ago against West Ham.
