Best EPL Goals Between Arsenal & Tottenham

This Sunday, Arsenal take on Tottenham Hotspur in a massive North London Derby at the Emirates Stadium.

The North London derby is one of the most fierce derbies in world football, and it has produced some fine individual and team goals in recent times.

Here are the best five goals from this fixture in the English Premier League.

Thierry Henry – 16 November 2002

Arsenal 3-0 Tottenham Hotspur 

Thierry Henry is arguably Arsenal’s best ever player and he produced a moment of magic against Spurs in 2002 when he dribbled pretty much the length of the pitch and scored the first goal in a 3-0 victory for the Gunners.

Emmanuel Adebayor – 15 September 2007

Tottenham Hotspur 1-3 Arsenal 

Emmanuel Adebayor will certainly not be in he fondest of memories with the Arsenal fans, but he procured a brilliant moment against Spurs when he famously volleyed the ball into the top corner, a goal that went on to be voted goal of the season.

David Bentley- 29 October 2008

Tottenham Hotspur 4-4 Arsenal 

David Bentley produced one of the greatest goals the Premier League has ever seen in 2008 against Arsenal when he chipped the ball up from over 35 yards out and lobbed the ball over Manuel Almunia.

Cesc Fabregas – 31 October 2009

Arsenal 3-0 Tottenham Hotspur 

Arsenal found themselves two goals up at half-time, and Fabregas made things worse for Spurs after he picked the ball straight from kick- off, ran past two defends and fired convincingly past Heurelho Gomes to secure the 3-0 victory. 

Harry Kane – 5 March 2016

Tottenham Hotspur 2-2 Arsenal 

Harry Kane lifted the roof at White Hart Lane in 2016 when he cut in from the left hand side and curled the ball into the top corner to provide a goal that will be embedded in the memory of the Spurs faithful.
