Arsenal came from behind to win 3-2 at Bournemouth, extending their lead at the top of the Premier League.
The visitors gifted Bournemouth an early goal when defender Gabriel Magalhães scored an own goal. He quickly made amends by scoring at the correct end to equalize.
Declan Rice, returning from injury, then scored twice to secure the victory. Bournemouth's Eli Junior Kroupi scored late to create a tense finish, but Arsenal held on.
The win puts Arsenal six points clear at the top of the league table. It follows a strong 4-1 victory over Aston Villa earlier in the week.
