In an impressive display of attacking football, Arsenal extended their lead at the top of the Premier League with a comprehensive victory over Fulham.

Mikel Arteta's team responded perfectly to Manchester City's narrow win at Crystal Palace on Saturday night, putting in a dominant first-half performance to secure a 3-0 lead.

Gabriel Martinelli had a goal disallowed for offside by the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) before defender Gabriel headed in Leandro Trossard's corner to open the scoring after 21 minutes.

Trossard then assisted Martinelli's header before setting up captain Martin Odegaard for Arsenal's third goal in first-half stoppage time.

Although Fulham mounted a late rally in the second half, with Aaron Ramsdale denying Bobby de Cordova-Reid and Tosin Adarabioyo hitting the woodwork, Arsenal remained in control of the game.

Arteta even brought on the returning Gabriel Jesus, who had been sidelined with a knee injury sustained while playing for Brazil at the World Cup, for a 13-minute cameo.

Overall, it was a clinical and impressive performance from Arsenal that further cemented their position at the top of the Premier League.

The Football Association is investigating Arsenal's celebrations after Saturday's 97th-minute winner over Bournemouth.

Referee Chris Kavanagh included the incident in his match report, which will be reviewed.

Reiss Nelson's goal secured the victory, prompting the Gunners' bench, substitutes, and coaching staff to rush onto the field to celebrate with him.

The win allowed Arsenal to maintain their five-point lead at the top of the Premier League. Bournemouth had taken an early lead through Philip Billing and went 2-0 up thanks to a Marcos Senesi header before Arsenal's comeback, which included goals from Thomas Partey and Ben White.

UEFA announced on Tuesday that it would provide a full refund to all Liverpool fans who purchased tickets for the 2022 Champions League final.

The decision was made after a review of the event highlighted a series of organorganisationalures that nearly resulted in a disaster outside the Stade de France.

The refund scheme will cover all 19,618 Liverpool tickets, with fans receiving the full ticket cost back from the European football governing body. Ticket prices for the final in Paris last May ranged from £59.40 to £585.70.

Liverpool was involved in the decision-making process from the start and influenced discussions. This refund comes after Liverpool fans were subjected to indiscriminate tear gas spraying, which led to crushing around the stadium before the game but were initially blamed by UEFA and the French government for causing the disturbances.

Both later rowed back on those claims with a UEFA-commissioned report praising their conduct and saying the organisational failures from the two governing bodies could have had catastrophic consequences.

Chelsea midfielder Andrey Santos will rejoin former club Vasco de Gama on loan after failing to secure a work permit.

Last month he helped Brazil win the South American Under-20 Championship.

Santos scored the opener in the final against Uruguay and finished as the tournament's joint-top scorer with six goals.

In a statement Chelsea said Santos now has "the opportunity to develop further" in Brazil's Serie A.
