Gunners Go Nine Points Clear with Comfortable Sunderland Win.

Arsenal moved nine points clear at the top of the Premier League after a routine 3-0
victory over Sunderland at the Emirates Stadium, strengthening their grip on the titl
race.
The visitors started brightly and nearly punished an early error from David Raya, but the
hosts gradually took control despite struggling to create clear openings in the first half.
The breakthrough arrived just before the interval when Martín Zubimendi struck from
range to put Mikel Arteta’s side ahead. Sunderland remained competitive after the
restart, but their resistance faded once substitute Viktor Gyökeres doubled the lead
shortly after coming on.
The Swedish striker then wrapped up the result in stoppage time, finishing a counter-
attack to seal a comfortable win and maintain Arsenal’s strong title momentum.
The result also extended Arsenal’s impressive home record against promoted sides
while increasing pressure on their closest challengers as the run-in continues.
