Video: Arsenal take the lead from the spot after Cristian Romero handball

By Saikat -

Arsenal star Bukayo Saka scored his second goal of the game in the north London derby against Tottenham Hotspur from the penalty spot.

The Gunners were handed the spot kick ten minutes into the second half when a handball from Christian Romero gave the home side an opportunity to get ahead of their rivals once again.

Saka managed to open the scoring for Arsenal early on in the game through a deflected effort and Romero will be bitterly disappointed to have contributed significantly to both Arsenal goals.

The Argentine has been a key player for Spurs this season but his performance in the north London derby has been below par so far and Tottenham will feel that both Arsenal goals could have been avoided.

Saka managed to put Arsenal 2-1 up but the Gunners were pegged back immediately by Son Heung-min and the scores are now level at 2-2.
