West
Ham 1-3 Arsenal – Arsenal FC had to come back from a 1-0 half time deficit to
record a long-awaited win. The team selected by Freddie Ljungberg looked very
decent. Football fans from around the world can attain Premier League

The
omens did not look good when Hector Bellerin had to pull out while warming up
to be replaced by Ainsley Maitland-Niles. It got a whole lot worse when Kieran
Tierney had to go off with what looked like a shoulder injury.
Arsenal
dominated possession in the first half but did not show any sense of urgency;
in fact, they showed very little, no creativity, too much sideways passing and
lingering on the ball. West Ham, on the other hand, looked far more energetic
when they got the ball and offered far more in the attack.
It
was, therefore, no surprise when they went ahead on the 38th minute with a slightly dodgy goal that VAR determined was not scored with the arm but rather
the shoulder of Ogbonna.
The
truth is, it was another very poor first-half display from the Gunners. You
would have thought that they would come out with all guns blazing in the second
half. They did not. West Ham had the upper hand until the 60th minute when
Martinelli slotted home from a pass from Kolasinac.
Special goal:
Now
it was game on. The game then started to flow from end to end and for the first
time in the game, Arsenal started to look very dangerous going forward. Then it
came on the 66th minute, a special goal from Nicholas Pepe. He finally showed
the class he possesses in abundance.
Aubameyang
passed the ball to his right and Pepe stepped inside a curled a beauty to the
right of the Hammers keeper. Arsenal now had the upper hand and just three
minutes later Pepe and Aubameyang combined once again.
This the time it was the Ivorian that was the provider and Auba whacked it in on the
half volley. Arsenal continued to look the more dangerous and West Ham did not
offer up much as the game continued, truth is told.
There
are still some significant problems, this win does not cover them up but the
lads showed character and this could easily be a turning point. They need to
build on this win and confidence will have been lifted. The fans will certainly
be happier tonight, it has been a long time coming.
