Premier League: Goals from Gabriel and Holding help Arsenal beat WEST HAM 2-1

Eddie Nketiah’s low effort from the edge of the box was turned behind by Lukasz Fabianski seven minutes before the break, and the game burst into life from that moment. Arsenal were in front from the resulting corner as Holding got up ahead of Kurt Zouma to nod into the bottom-left corner for his first Premier League goal.

Back came West Ham, though, and after Aaron Ramsdale expertly kept out a header from Declan Rice, he was beaten by a deflected Bowen strike, with the winger given time and space to control and shoot inside the area.

But Arsenal were back in front nine minutes after half-time through Gabriel, their other centre-back, who was picked out by a fine Gabriel Martinelli cross and headed beyond Fabianski.

Nketiah should have taken the game away from West Ham but fired wide after cutting in from the left on the break, before the striker drew a sharp low stop from Fabianski.

However, the visitors were not made to pay for those squandered chances, holding on for a third straight victory that again puts them two points clear of Tottenham.

What’s Next?

That’s three wins on the bounce for Arsenal, and they’ve leapfrogged Spurs back into fourth, with a two-point advantage over their rivals. Next up for them is Leeds United at home. West Ham stay in seventh, and their attention now turns to their Europa League semi-final second leg against Frankfurt on Thursday.
