The Colorado Springs Gazette final

Arsenal’s Jesus doubles

A player who left City is thriving at Arsenal.

Gabriel Jesus played a starring role in the 4-2 win over Leicester, scoring the first two before halftime and providing the assists for second-half strikes by Granit Xhaka and Gabriel Martinelli.

Jesus, the Brazil striker who left City in the summer for a reported 45 million pounds ($54 million), was in hot form for Arsenal in preseason and appears to be relishing being the starting striker once again after being in and out of City’s team.

An own-goal by William Saliba and James Maddison’s strike brought Leicester twice to within one goal of Arsenal.
