Saka was on top form during the north London derby, not only scoring a goal but also expertly responding to the taunts of some Spurs fans. After Bukayo's strike and Kai Havertz's goal, it seemed like Arsenal was headed for an easy victory over their rivals at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. But Cristian Romero's goal and Son Heung-min's penalty kick put some pressure on the Gunners to maintain their lead.
Luckily, they were able to hold on to their narrow advantage and secure the win, keeping them at the top of the Premier League table. In fact, reigning champions Manchester City now trail them by just one point, though they do have a game in hand.
Saka was a key player in the victory, not only scoring a goal but also causing trouble for Tottenham's defense throughout the match. His excellent performance was made even sweeter when some Spurs fans started chanting, "you let your country down," referencing his missed penalty in the Euro 2020 final.
But Saka didn't let the taunts get to him. In fact, he had the perfect response. After Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg's own goal, Saka could be seen cupping his ears towards the source of the chanting. It was a satisfying moment for the young player, and it further solidified his status as a rising star in the football world.
After the match, Saka spoke about the intense atmosphere of the derby and how proud he was of his team for fighting until the very end to secure the win. He also acknowledged the pressure of the title race and the need for Arsenal to continue winning in order to stay in the race.
But Saka and his teammates are ready for the challenge. They have gained valuable experience and are determined to finish the season strong. With just three games left, they know that there is no room for error, but they are confident in their abilities and ready to give it their all.
