Arsenal’s dreams of reclaiming the English Premier League summit evaporated into the crisp London air as West Ham executed a clinical smash-and-grab raid, emerging 2-0 victors at the Emirates Stadium. The Hammers’ triumph was orchestrated by Tomas Soucek, who pounced on a controversial decision just 13 minutes in. Jarrod Bowen’s cross was adjudged to have stayed in play by the VAR and referee, despite appearing to clip the touchline, allowing Soucek to tap home.

The Gunners, still reeling from a contentious VAR call that went against them at Newcastle earlier this season, refused to be subdued. Bukayo Saka rattled the post with a thunderous effort before the break, while Gabriel Jesus spurned two golden opportunities in the second half.

West Ham, however, remained resolute. David Moyes’ men doubled their lead in the 72nd minute when former Gunner William Mavropanos rose highest to head home, adding a cruel twist to his return to north London. The Hammers held firm, even surviving a late penalty scare when Benrahma’s spot-kick was parried by David Raya.

The result leaves Arsenal two points adrift of league leaders Liverpool, their title charge momentarily stalled. West Ham, meanwhile, celebrate their first ever away win against Arsenal under Moyes in 23 attempts, a fitting reward for their clinical efficiency. They leapfrog into sixth place, brimming with confidence as they host Brighton next.

Arsenal, still smarting from their missed chances, now face a tricky trip to Fulham on Sunday. The race for the Premier League crown is wide open, and both teams must quickly refocus if they are to stay in the hunt.

Key Takeaways:

  • West Ham’s victory is their first at the Emirates since 2015 and their first league double over Arsenal since 2006-07.
  • Arsenal had a record-breaking 77 touches in the opposition box but failed to score, highlighting their profligacy in front of goal.
  • David Moyes finally earns his first ever away win against Arsenal, ending a 23-match drought stretching back to 2013.
