A Kai Havertz equaliser on the hour mark set the game up for a grandstand finale.

But it took the Gunners until the 97th minute to find the winner through Declan Rice.

Wright was on punditry duty for Australian channel Optus Sport, who tweeted out his reaction to the goal.

After going mad over the winner, Wright sat down to show the panel what he had been looking at on his phone.

Wright said: “Look at this! Look what I was just looking at.”

The former Arsenal striker then pulled up an article he had been reading on how Maddison had described Rice as a “top player” and “hated” him moving to Arsenal this summer.

Rice pulled up the article and quoted Maddison saying “I hate that he plays for Arsenal” before breaking out into a hearty laugh.

He then broke out into a chant of: “Arsenal! Arsenal!”

Rice’s last gasp goal puts the Gunners five points clear at the top of the table.

Liverpool can close the gap back to two if they win at struggling Sheffield United tonight.

Meanwhile champions Manchester City could close their gap on Arsenal to three points if they win tonight… But face a difficult trip away to Aston Villa.

Villa currently have the best home form in the Premier League, winning 13 consecutive Premier League matches dating back to last season.
