Sky Sports reporter apologises to Eberechi Eze after North London derby brace
Arsenal star Eberechi Eze has scored five goals against Tottenham across two meetings this season.
Sky Sports reporter Patrick Davison issued an apology right at the end of his post-match interview with Eberechi Eze and Viktor Gyokeres on Sunday.
The pair were whisked in for media duties after bagging braces in the 4-1 North London derby win over Spurs.
Bouncing back from a shock 2-2 draw with Wolves, Arsenal regained a five-point lead ahead of Manchester City at the top of the table with yet another away win against their bitter rivals.
Having a bagged hat-trick in the reverse fixture in his debut in the fixture, Eze scored his fourth and fifth goals against Spurs this season.

He put Arsenal ahead in the first half before making it 3-1 on the hour mark after Gykoeres had put Arsenal back ahead.
The Swede put in arguably his best performance in an Arsenal shirt and added another in stoppage time.
Davison quizzed the pair on the win and their displays and had referred to Eze's strikes as "pretty simple" when asking him about his pair of goals.
Eze said that there were "probably not" simple and laughed, leading to Davison saying "sorry for the insult".
The journalist then repeated the apology to Eze after he handed over the Player of the Match award to Gyokeres to close out the segment.
Next up for Arsenal is a visit of Chelsea on Sunday 1 March, a day after City travel to Leeds United.
