Arsenal managed to grind out a crucial 2-0 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers, securing their place at the summit of the Premier League once more.
The Gunners, still feeling the effects of their midweek Champions League exit, faced a resilient Wolves side. However, a strike from Trossard and a late goal from Odegaard ensured all three points stayed with Arsenal.
In the early exchanges, Arsenal showed promise, with Havertz and Rice testing the Wolves defence. Yet, Wolves threatened too, with Gomes rattling the woodwork with a fierce strike.
As halftime approached, it was Trossard who broke the deadlock with a somewhat unorthodox finish. Despite Arsenal’s dominance, they struggled to extend their lead, with White’s effort ruled out for offside.
In the second half, Wolves grew into the game, forcing Arsenal onto the back foot at times. However, Arteta’s side held firm, with Partey’s late introduction shoring up the midfield.
With moments remaining, Odegaard secured the victory with a composed finish, sealing a hard-fought win for the Gunners.
