Arsenal moved a step closer to their first Premier League title in 22 years with a dominant 3-0 victory over Fulham on Saturday. Viktor Gyokeres and Bukayo Saka were the standout performers in a one-sided contest at the Emirates Stadium.

Mikel Arteta's side produced a devastating first-half display, scoring three goals to effectively end the match before the break. Gyokeres opened the scoring in the 9th minute, Saka doubled the lead in the 40th, and Gyokeres added a third in stoppage time of the first half.

The win lifted Arsenal six points clear of second-placed Manchester City, although Pep Guardiola's men have two games in hand. The Gunners' emphatic performance puts pressure on City, who cannot afford any slip-ups in the title race.

Saka made his first start since March 22 after recovering from an Achilles injury, and his return proved crucial. The England winger's creativity and pace were instrumental in Arsenal's attacking dominance.

Arsenal now turn their attention to the Champions League semi-final second leg against Atletico Madrid on Tuesday, with the tie finely poised at 1-1 after the first leg.
