BREAKING NEWS: “He had 68 clean touches, 8 duels won, 5 long balls and 3 key passes, if I’m to be honest with you, he deserves the man of the match award than anybody on the pitch in my opinion”- Skysport Pundit Micah Richards says £60M Arsenal star deserves to be the man of the match winner for his performance against Crystal Palace

In Saturday’s thrilling football encounter, Arsenal clinched a vital 5-0 victory against Crystal Palace, breaking a three-game winless streak. The standout player of the match was Arsenal’s Gabriel Magalhaes, whose exceptional performance earned praise from pundits.

Gabriel, the Brazilian defender, made a remarkable impact by scoring a powerful header in the 11th minute and later contributing to an own goal by Dean Henderson in the 37th minute. These goals not only secured Arsenal’s victory but also alleviated early pressure on the team. In the second half, goals from Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Martinelli (twice) sealed an impressive win for the team.

Gabriel showcased his excellence both defensively and offensively, consistently proving to be one of Arsenal’s top performers this season. In the derby match, he scored a goal and demonstrated defensive prowess with 68 touches, eight duels won, and five clearances.

With a market value of €60 million, Gabriel’s contributions extended beyond scoring, as he completed five long balls and induced three fouls from the opposition. Despite Martinelli’s late goals, Gabriel emerged as the standout performer for Arsenal.

His recent exceptional form includes three goal contributions in the past month. With Arsenal trailing leaders Liverpool by two points, fans are eagerly anticipating a positive outcome in Liverpool’s upcoming match against Bournemouth.

Looking ahead, Arsenal is set to face Nottingham Forest away on January 30. Given Gabriel’s impressive form, supporters can expect more captivating performances from him in the upcoming matches.
