Alexis Sanchez didn’t just beat down previously undefeated Leicester City with his hat trick for Arsenal on Saturday, he etched his name into the history books.
After failing to score in Arsenal’s first half-dozen games of the season, Sanchez made up for lost time with a domineering performance that included a shocking hat trick against one of the highest scoring teams in the league.

Arsenal would go on to win the match 5-2, handing the Foxes their first defeat of the campaign.
