Arsenal beat West Ham 1:0 and moved closer to the Premier League title
Arsenal footballers won the London derby at West Ham's ground 1:0, strengthening their lead in the English Premier League. The decisive goal was scored by Leandro Trossard in the 83rd minute of the round 36 match. Arsenal now lead the table with a five-point advantage over Manchester City, who however have one game in hand. El Pais ↗ lidovky.cz ↗
The match unfolded in a dramatic atmosphere. West Ham got a chance to equalize late in the match, but it was disallowed by the video referee. It was thus the VAR system that became the key element of the match, correctly ruling in Arsenal's favor and preventing the opponent's equalizing goal in the closing stages. Manchester City had secured a three-point win against Brentford (3:0) the day before this duel, reducing their deficit to Arsenal to two points, which is why every point was important for the leading team. denik.cz ↗ denik.cz ↗
Arsenal thus maintain their hope of winning the title, even though several rounds remain until the end of the season. West Ham, on the other hand, remain in a relegation position in the table. The derby win was an important step forward for Arsenal in the fight for the championship title, which Manchester City is chasing very closely. The upcoming matches will be decisive for both clubs in their goals — either to defend their position at the top of the table, or to fight for points in the battle for survival in the league.
