Arsenal extended their lead at the top of the Premier League to six points following a convincing 3-0 victory over Fulham.
The return of Bukayo Saka, who made his first start in six weeks, energised the squad and helped dispel concerns over fatigue amid their Champions League semi-final campaign.
Viktor Gyokeres played a starring role, netting two goals—one off a Saka cross and another from a Leandro Trossard delivery—to reach 21 goals for the season.
Saka also found the net himself, beating Bernd Leno at the near post as the Gunners significantly bolstered their goal difference.
Despite the win, the title race remains tight as Manchester City holds two games in hand.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta utilised the comfortable lead to rest key players like Saka, Gyökeres, and Declan Rice in the second half, shifting focus to their upcoming European clash against Atlético Madrid.
For Fulham, the loss hinders their pursuit of a top-10 finish and European qualification.
In the fight for survival, West Ham’s 3-0 loss to Brentford has provided a major boost for Tottenham.
Though Spurs are currently in the relegation zone, the Hammers’ defeat means Tottenham can move out of the bottom three with a win against Aston Villa on Sunday.
Brentford’s victory, fuelled by an own goal and a penalty from Igor Thiago, further strengthened their bid for a sixth-place finish.
Elsewhere, Newcastle United moved up to 13th place and distanced themselves from the relegation scrap with a 3-1 win over Brighton.
Goals from William Osula, Dan Burn, and Harvey Barnes ended a five-game losing streak for Eddie Howe’s side.
Meanwhile, Sunderland’s European ambitions took a hit after a 1-1 draw with Wolves, a match they played largely with 10 men following Dan Ballard’s first-half red card.
