PIERRE-EMERICK AUBAMEYANG left Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg dazed with a sublime piece of skill at the weekend.
Tottenham midfielder Hojbjerg was still trying to figure out what day it was after the Arsenal skipper’s fancy bit of footwork.
Hojbjerg had attempted to nick the ball off of Aubameyang in the 24th minute of the 1-0 Spurs win on Sunday.
But the striker anticipated Hojbjerg’s incoming lunge and neatly side-stepped it with a silky, speedy one-two before driving the ball into the Spurs box.
Auba’s trickery at White Hart Lane was caught on camera by Twitter account AFC Stuff.
They shared the clip, which has now been viewed over 500,000 times, with the caption: “Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang sending Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg to the shops.”
But Auba’s skills weren’t enough to prevent the Gunners from falling to defeat at the hands of their arch-rivals.
Son Heung-min was the difference between the sides with his late goal in the 79th minute from close range.
Spurs could’ve had a few more as Dele Alli hit the post twice in the lively encounter.
And Hojbjerg was at the centre of attention again for all the wrong reasons when he clashed with Gunners boss Mikel Arteta.

The pair had a verbal back and forth when the Dane nearly clattered into Arteta on the sidelines while trying to prevent the ball from going out of play.
After a few words were exchanged Arteta decided to tell Hojbjerg to SHUSH.
Another memorable moment in the match was when both sets of rival fans joined in unison to give England winger Bukayo Saka a standing ovation when he came off the bench in the second half.
