Mikel Arteta has praised Gabriel Jesus for bringing “belief” and “energy” to Arsenal as the forward shone in victory at Sevilla esports
Jesus continued his love affair with the Champions League with a fine goal and assist double as the Gunners won 2-1 at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium esports
A piece of magic set up compatriot Gabriel Martinelli to open the scoring on the stroke of half-time before Jesus doubled the lead with a fine, curling finish of his own – although he later limped off having moments earlier held his hamstring esports
The Brazil forward may not boast the most prolific strike record but he has now scored an impressive 23 goals in 41 appearances in Europe’s elite club competition esports
Asked if Jesus had been signed from Manchester City because of his prowess in the competition, Arteta replied: “For sure esports
He has been through a lot in the last few years and he’s still really young esports
“He has enormous experiences – some of them not the nicest but very necessary to be the player that he is today esports
I’m really happy to have him in the team esports
“He came here for a reason esports
I think he changed our world esports
He brought so much belief and energy to that team, he needs to step in in those moments esports
He’s done that esports
That’s when a player becomes accountable for the team esports
“Big games are for big players esports
He needed to produce those moments to win in a stadium like this esports
He’s done it for us in a really big way esports
Then, really sad because he felt something in his hamstring and I’m worried about that esports
“We need those players to win games esports
If you want to play Manchester City, then go to Stamford Bridge, then come here – that’s the level we’re at right now esports
To come here and win, big credit to the boys esports
”Jesus’ night ended as he hobbled off to be replaced by Eddie Nketiah in the latter stages – with Arteta admitting he is concerned for the striker esports
“(I am) really sad because he felt something in his hamstring and I’m worried about that,” he added esports
“He straight away asked to be subbed which is not good news because Gabriel is not a player who does that at all esports
We will have to wait and see in the next few days esports
”The victory saw Arsenal recover from defeat in Lens last time out and was enough to take them to the top of Group B at the halfway stage esports
Arteta’s side will be in a good position to reach the knockout stages if they beat Sevilla in the return game at the Emirates Stadium in a fortnight and the Spaniard was pleased with the reaction to defeat in France esports
“That result against Lens put us in a difficult position and the team had to react,” he said esports
“We are coming from the back of very difficult games where the team has to step in and go against adversity as well with some of the injuries that we picked up to big players esports
“The team is so willing to at least try their best even if we don’t manage to be our best all the time esports

Max Verstappen defied Lewis Hamilton to win a cat-and-mouse United States Grand Prix at a sizzling Circuit of the Americas in Austin esports
Verstappen has been on easy street this season, but the triple world champion was made to fight for the 50th win of his career – becoming only the fifth driver to reach a half-century esports
Indeed, at one stage, Hamilton dared to dream of ending a losing streak which stands at 686 days and counting esports
Yet, as so often been the case this year, Verstappen’s speed in his all-conquering Red Bull machine came to the fore esports
Verstappen joins Hamilton (103 wins), Michael Schumacher (91), Sebastian Vettel (53) and Alain Prost (51) in the half-century club esports
“To win my 50th career win makes me very proud and we will try to push for me,” said Verstappen esports
He moved ahead of Lando Norris on lap 28 of 56 to all but seal the win esports
Hamilton might bemoan a questionable strategy decision which saw him lose 10 seconds to Verstappen in the opening round of pit stops esports
But in reality, he probably did not have the pace to stop the Dutchman from claiming his 15th win from the 18 rounds so far esports
He crossed the line an agonising 2 esports
2 sec behind Verstappen with Norris hanging on to the final spot on the podium esports
Hamilton could count himself unfortunate to drop from third to fourth at the start esports
The seven-time world champion enjoyed a decent getaway, but he was blocked by Norris under braking allowing Sainz to sneak through esports
Norris had seen off pole-sitter Leclerc with a lunge at the first bend to assume top spot esports
As Norris set about building a lead – already two seconds clear of Leclerc at the end of the second lap – Hamilton set about passing both scarlet cars esports
First up was Sainz esports
Hamilton used the tow to latch on to the back of Ferrari on the 210mph drag to Turn 12, and, assisted by DRS, drew alongside Sainz before sliding underneath the Spaniard esports
On the following lap, Verstappen, who started in sixth after his pole lap in qualifying was chalked off for exceeding track limits, relegated Sainz another place when he made his move at the same corner esports
Hamilton has won six times across the Pond – with five of those victories here in Austin – and the 38-year-old required only two laps to swat Leclerc aside for second esports
Deeper on the brakes at Turn 12, Hamilton sailed round the outside of the Monegasque at the left-hander, with Norris now three seconds up the road esports
Behind, and Verstappen was not finding it as easy to make progress esports
He was stuck behind Leclerc for an additional five laps before finally making his move on the Monegasque esports
He trailed Norris by seven seconds, and Hamilton by four esports
In the Mercedes garage, Prince Harry cut a pensive figure as he gnawed at his fingernails esports
The Duke of Sussex has been something of lucky charm for Hamilton esports
He was a guest of Mercedes when Hamilton secured his second title in the 2014 season decider in Abu Dhabi, leading the congratulations to his fellow Briton on the radio esports
Verstappen was the first in for new rubber at the end of lap 16 with Norris stopping the next time round esports
But Hamilton stayed out esports
Were Mercedes attempting a one-stopper? Hamilton did not seem convinced esports
Asked if he could complete another five laps on his current set of tyres, Hamilton replied: “I am not sure, man esports
It is pretty tough esports
”Hamilton then locked up before his race engineer Peter Bonnington was back on the intercom to inform Hamilton that Verstappen – who on new tyres had just lapped three seconds faster than the Briton – was now likely to gazump him when he eventually stopped esports
“No s***, man,” yelled Hamilton esports
“I am struggling out here esports
”You have given me a hell of a gap to closeLewis Hamilton on the team radioOn lap 20, in came Hamilton, and a slow front-right tyre change added to his woes by costing him a needless second esports
When Hamilton emerged from the pits, he had dropped to third, five seconds adrift of Verstappen esports
“I came out so far behind,” he said with a hint of dejection esports
When the opening stops were completed, Norris led Verstappen by 2 esports
4 sec with Hamilton 7 esports
5 off the lead esports
By virtue of taking on another set of mediums, Verstappen had to stop again, but Norris and Hamilton – now both on the hards – could, if their rubber allowed, go all the way to the end esports
Hamilton, failing to make any inroads and sensing his best chance of ending a 22-month winning streak had faded, expressed his frustrations esports
“You have given me a hell of a gap to close,” he said esports
On lap 28, Verstappen dived underneath Norris for the lead at Turn 12 esports
Norris had a nibble back at the Red Bull heading into the ensuing right hander, but he failed to make it stick esports
The question now was whether Norris, and indeed Hamilton – now less than five seconds off the lead – could make their tyres last esports
The answer arrived on lap 34 when Norris dived in for a fresh set of boots esports
Verstappen followed in on lap 35, and despite, a slow left-rear tyre change, retained his position ahead of Norris esports
Three laps later and Hamilton was in, changing to the faster medium compound esports
Hamilton had the bit esports between his teeth and within 10 laps he was crawling all over the back of Norris’ McLaren esports
Norris slung his McLaren to the inside on the entry to the first corner in a move to stop Hamilton, but the older Brit gained esports better traction out of the corner to slingshot by in his Mercedes esports
Verstappen was five seconds ahead and Hamilton started to reel his old nemesis in only to run out of laps esports
Sainz took fourth ahead of Sergio Perez with Leclerc sixth and George Russell seventh for Mercedes esports
