Fulham 1 Arsenal 5 : Iwobi Fantastic As Emery's Revolution Continues To Bear Fruit
Super Eagles star Alex Iwobi made an impressive impact as Arsenal annihilated Fulham 5-1 at Vicarage Road in the London Derby on Sunday.

The Arsenal youth product was outstanding at the left flank with his mesmerizing skills as he dazzled for the Gunners.

Arsenal who played on the high line dominated possession from the onset. Their sleek approach was a delight to watch for fans at the arena.

They went in front through French international Alexander Lacazette before the half hour.

Before half time, former Chelsea and VFL Wolfsburg attacker Andre Schurrle slotted the ball past the keeper.

Iwobi nutmegged his marker before placing a low cross to the path of Hector Bellerin who forced the keeper to a save.

Lacazette restored Arsenal's lead with a quality strike to the far corner.

Iwobi who gave a good account of himself eventually made way for Aaron Ramsey in the 66th minute.

The Welsh man made an instant impact with the third goal of the match, albeit a back heel one minute after coming on for the Super Eagles star.

In the 79th minute, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang got on the end of Bellerin's cross before slotting home to make the scoreline 4-1.

The Gabonese international had more in his armory. He showed predatory instinct to bury the ball to the net for his brace.
