Christian Eriksen, Danny Welbeck Are Our Premier League Men of the Weekend

Sean SwabyJun 8, 2018

There were two heroes in the two highly anticipated top-four clashes in the Premier League on Super Sunday. 

One was likely, the other much less so. 

Tottenham and Arsenal both took huge strides in making the Premier League title race a north London fight, as Spurs defeated Manchester City 2-1 at the Etihad and the Gunners beat table-topping Leicester City in the last kick of the game.

As a  result, Christian Eriksen and Danny Welbeck are our Premier League Men of the Weekend. 

Eriksen has been dazzling all season for Tottenham, so it was always plausible the Dane would play the hero role for Tottenham, and he did with an 83rd-minute winner. 

Welbeck, conversely, entered as a late substitute for Arsenal in making his first Premier League appearance in 10 months after a multitude of injuries. He wound up nodding home a Mesut Ozil free-kick in the fifth and final minute of injury time to set off a wild celebration at the Emirates. 

Chelsea's Pedro, Liverpool's Daniel Sturridge and Tottenham's Mousa Dembele all enjoyed standout performances, too.
