Arsenal edge ever-closer to their first Premier League title in 22 years, as they just about beat West Ham 1-0 away from home. It was a colossal effort from the Gunners, and they fired themselves in front in the final 10 minutes of the 90 after looking like rueing a flurry of early missed chances. Odegaard emerged from the bench and played a smart give-and-go with Rice before finding Trossard in the centre of the box to slot into the bottom-right corner. Now, to their credit, the Irons went hammer and tongs to get themselves back on track for top-flight survival. However, they were first despairing as Fernandes failed to put the ball either side of MOTM Raya in the 78th minute, while what looked like their injury-time leveller was denied by a brave VAR call. Ninety-five minutes were on the clock when Wilson looked to restore parity from a chaotic corner. However, upon review, referee Cavanagh was sent to the monitor to see Pablo's stray arm fouling Raya as he jumped to meet the set-piece. The decision was agonising, but ultimately correct, putting Arsenal one step closer to the title, and giving relegation scrappers Tottenham and Leeds something to consider ahead of their Monday night meeting. After playing beneath their 1.32 xG, West Ham remain in the bottom three, losing here to keep the Elland Road natives up. For the 1.36 xG-toting Arsenal, the countdown truly begins. We're down to two more games, and wins against Burnley at home and Crystal Palace away will give Mikel Arteta's group the title. #arsenal #arsenalnews #arsenalfc #premierleague ******** 📱 Follow me on social media Twitter/X - https://x.com/henrytalks96?s=21&t=8-IitA2oz0ENuxLLzeEYZg Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/henrywright365?igsh=Z2w5YjdlZHJ4bGpx&utm_source=qr ******** About HenryTalksFootball 👇 Hi, I’m Henry from Henry Talks Football – your go-to place for passionate, honest, and insightful football content.

I never thought I'd live to see the day when a VAR check went our way. As long as Arsenal wins, I don't care. COYG!
I’ll never forget that Raya save for as long as I live. Like you said, it was like time stopped and all the emotions from the last four years just came flooding in.

Gabriel, Saliba and Raya haven't let in a CL goal in open-play for 2 years now - they are world class and will get us a double this year imo!
