WOLVERHAMPTON: Goals from Leandro Trossard and Martin Odegaard gave Arsenal a gritty 2-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers that sent them back to the top of the Premier League table on Saturday after a game that is unlikely to live long in the memory.

Arsenal lead on 74 points, one point ahead of Manchester City, who have a game in hand having beaten Chelsea 1-0 earlier on Saturday to reach the FA Cup final. Liverpool are in third place on 71 points, also with a match in hand on the Gunners.

The best of them fell to Wolves midfielder Joao Gomes on the half-hour mark as he went on a run down the right before unleashing a powerful shot that David Raya palmed onto the near post to avert the danger. "I tried to get it on target and it went in super well. I'm pleased it went in. We really needed it," Trossard said of his ninth league goal of the season, his best total in English football so far.
