Eberechi Eze's stunning hat-trick against Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday not only secured a dominant 4-1 victory for Arsenal in the North London Derby but also significantly boosted the Gunners' Premier League title aspirations. The win propelled Arsenal six points clear at the top of the table, increasing their lead over their rivals.

The match was heavily influenced by Eze, who proved to be a constant threat to the Tottenham defense. His "attacking masterclass" served as a response to pre-match comments from Tottenham's manager, Thomas Frank, who had jokingly feigned ignorance of Eze's abilities. Eze, who was close to signing with Tottenham in the summer before joining Arsenal for £60 million, made a statement with his performance, demonstrating exactly what they missed out on.

Arsenal's dominance was evident from the start, with Eze creating an early opportunity for Declan Rice. Leandro Trossard opened the scoring in the 36th minute, followed by Eze's first goal just five minutes later. Eze's quick feet and precise shot proved too difficult for Tottenham's goalkeeper, Guglielmo Vicario.

At the start of the second half, Eze extended Arsenal's lead with a fantastic shot from the edge of the area, sending the home fans into a frenzy. Although Richarlison scored a spectacular goal from 40 yards to give Tottenham hope, Eze quickly dashed any comeback hopes with his third goal, a superb finish that sealed the victory for Arsenal. This historic performance marked the first hat-trick in a North London Derby since 1978. Eze himself expressed his gratitude and joy after the match, stating that he had "prayed for a hat-trick" and was thankful to God for granting his wish.

The comprehensive victory and Eze's exceptional performance have sent a strong message to the rest of the Premier League. Arsenal's ability to capitalize on Manchester City's defeat demonstrates their readiness to compete for the title. With Liverpool facing turmoil, Arsenal has a golden opportunity to win their first English title since 2004.

As the season progresses, Arsenal faces a tough schedule, including a Champions League match against Bayern Munich and a Premier League game against Chelsea. The team's performance, especially Eze's contributions, suggests they are well-prepared for the challenges ahead. Currently, Arsenal sits atop the Premier League table with 26 points, followed by Manchester City and Chelsea.

The match against Tottenham underscored not only Eze's individual brilliance but also Arsenal's collective strength and determination. His three goals against Tottenham were a reminder of his talent and a clear signal of Arsenal's ambition this season.
