Mesut Ozil once again turned out be the key performer for his side as Arsenal secured a 2-0 win over Bournemouth to go one point clear at the top of the Premier League table.

The German midfielder set up Gabriel for his first Arsenal goal in the 27th minute before Ozil doubled the lead after the break from a slick one-two with Olivier Giroud, Sport24 reported.

The match also saw goalkeeper Petr Cech set a new clean sheet record in the Premier League by overtaking David James record of 169.

Arsenal will stay on top if former league leaders Leicester fail to claim a win over fourth-placed Manchester City on Tuesday.
