Arsenal 2-0 West Ham

at Ashburton Grove

ARSENAL moved into the top four with a 2-0 victory over West Ham at Ashburton Grove last night — a result manager Mikel Arteta branded a “big game.”

Second-half goals from Gabriel Martinelli and substitute Emile Smith Rowe helped the north Londoners to victory as they leapfrogged the Irons into fourth spot. 

Alexandre Lacazette was named captain in place of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who was not included in the squad after a disciplinary breach.
