Gabriel Magalhaes tagged Richarlison in an Instagram post following the North London Derby, sharing a photograph from the Arsenal team coach. The image captures him clutching several playing cards in his right hand, with the four of hearts visible after their 4-1 triumph.
Positioned on the table before him is an opened packet of chocolate M&Ms, a can of Rio and the player of the match trophy. Viktor Gyokeres, though, was the one who received that accolade following his brace. Eberechi Eze presented the award to his colleague during their joint post-match interview on Sky Sports.

Gabriel Martinelli and Piero Hincapie both responded, "Completinho chefe," which translates to 'complete chef' or 'full on boss'. Numerous other players also responded with laughing emojis, including Christhian Mosquera and Declan Rice.
The ongoing exchange between Gabriel and Richarlison started during the summer when the Spurs striker tagged his fellow Brazilian in a post after Spurs defeated Arsenal in pre-season. He was holding the man-of-the-match award in a photograph accompanying the post.

His social media engagement on Sunday evening also included liking Bukayo Saka's post. The winger accompanied the image of their celebration with the comment: "More like it." Eze replied with a red heart emoji, whilst Mikel Merino also reacted with the raised hands and flexed biceps emojis.

The manager said: "I loved his attitude, his presence, how dominant he was in the game from the beginning. The first reaction immediately, he wants to grab the game, and he really wants to say, 'I'm here'. And that's what I love, he didn't score, but he was in every action. I think he was really, really good."
On the match itself, Arteta added: "I think the whole team, I cannot be prouder and happier for what I've seen out there, but especially the way we lived the last 72 hours, because I think this game in particular needed some context. And after what happened against Wolves and the manner in which we lost two points in the last kick of the game, it was tough.
"But that's the beauty of this game. There is no explanation watching the game, for how the hell you draw that game, from any angle.
