West Ham had not won in the Premier League since defeating Fulham in mid-January, but they produced a near-perfect performance to claim a second straight victory at Emirates Stadium on Saturday afternoon. The Hammers had conceded five in their previous meeting with the Gunners but defended magnificently on this occasion, restricting Mikel Arteta’s side to only two shots on target. Jarrod Bowen could have broken the deadlock before his 44th-minute opener but displayed the kind of attacking instinct Arsenal were lacking when he nodded home Aaron-Wissaka’s cross – after starting the move on the edge of his own box.
