Superb Jesus fires Arsenal to victory at Sevilla

The Brazilian striker's stunning turn and assist sent Gabriel Martinelli on his way to a debut Champions League goal on the stroke of half-time, before Jesus bettered it himself after the break with a superb curling finish to put Arsenal 2-0 up.

Arsenal's deficit was halved when Nemanja Gudelj headed home from a corner on the hour mark and despite some heavy Sevilla pressure in an electric Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium, some impressive saves from the much-maligned David Raya - including one in the dying moments of the game - maintained the Gunners' lead until full-time.
