Gabriel also admitted that he playfully imitated Villa midfielder Amadou Onana&#8217;s signature &#8216;pocket&#8217; celebration. This gesture is one he often uses in front of television cameras to symbolize securing further victories.<\/p>\n<p>In a cheeky response, Gabriel recreated Onana&#8217;s move by slipping his hand into his coat pocket and zipping it up, as seen in video footage shared on Arsenal&#8217;s social media platforms. Memories of Villa&#8217;s wild celebrations after their win over Arsenal at Villa Park on December 6 clearly added an extra layer of intensity to the rematch at the Emirates.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>It was clear Arsenal were keen to get revenge, with Gabriel admitting: &#8220;Yeah, like I said, we&#8217;ll get the three points, right?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Those things are exciting. It&#8217;s fun. It&#8217;s fun for them, it&#8217;s fun for us. Like I said, we&#8217;ll get the three points.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It wasn&#8217;t about getting them back, it wasn&#8217;t about getting Onana back. I know he&#8217;s a good person. So, yeah, no fighting or anything. Just celebrating.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Defeat at Villa Park was a bitter pill to swallow for Arsenal. Emi Buendia scored the winning goal in the last minute, causing Villa players on the pitch to celebrate, but the Gunners could only watch in despair.<\/p>\n<p>The enthusiastic reaction of the Villa bench and the subsequent celebration under the tunnel clearly left a lasting impression on the Arsenal team.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>One of the most charismatic figures in the Premier League, Onana shares an amazing bond with Aston Villa fans and is often seen enjoying big celebrations with them.<\/p>\n<p>After Arsenal&#8217;s 4-1 win over Villa on Tuesday night, Villa manager Unai Emery ignored the customary handshake with manager Mikel Arteta and ran to the front of the tunnel into the tunnel.<\/p>\n<p>Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez was also stopped by club staff after apparently being provoked by an Arsenal supporter on his way to the tunnel.<\/p>\n<p>Arsenal&#8217;s victory leaves them five points behind Manchester City. City still have a game in hand and are scheduled to face Sunderland on New Year&#8217;s Day.<\/p>\n<p>This victory widened the gap over Aston Villa in the title race to six points, reestablishing Arsenal&#8217;s lead at the top of the table.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/sport\/football\/2152064\/Arsenal-Gabriel-Onana-Aston-Villa\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Arsenal defender Gabriel has admitted he was &#8220;inspired&#8221; by Aston Villa&#8217;s wild celebration during the Gunners&#8217; last encounter.
