The English league is on break, but during the three weeks that the players get rest and their friends are in the African Championship and the Asian Championship, there are still a number of make-up games.
The one who got on the field today (Saturday) is Arsenal, who, after gaining only 4 points from the last 15 in the league and also being knocked out of the cup by Liverpool, wanted to recover against Crystal Palace at home and did so with a great performance on the way to a perfect 0:5.
16 - Arsenal have had 16 goal involvements from substitutes in the Premier League this season (10 goals, 6 assists), more than any other side.

The one who started the celebration was Gabriel, who hit the net in the 11th minute after a corner by Declan Rice.
Gabriel was also involved in the second goal after his shot hit the back of Dean Henderson, the visiting goalkeeper and went in.
Leandro Trossar broke a drought of more than two months after Jesus' assist in a burst in the 59th minute, and in added time Gabriel Martinelli scored a brace.
