Wolves were defeated 0-2 by Arsenal as Leandro Trossard and Martin Odegaard scored to help Mikel Arteta’s team reclaim the top spot in the Premier League.

Leandro Trossard and Martin Odegaard were the heroes for Arsenal as they secured a crucial 2-0 victory over Wolves at Molineux, propelling them back to the summit of the Premier League.

After their disappointing exit from the UEFA Champions League at the hands of Bayern Munich, Mikel Arteta’s men needed a strong response, and that’s exactly what they delivered.

Despite dominating possession in the first half, it was Wolves who came closest to breaking the deadlock. Joao Gomes’ close-range effort was brilliantly saved by David Raya, as the ball ricocheted off the post.

Arsenal remained patient and persistent, and their perseverance paid off just before half-time. Leandro Trossard’s sliced effort found its way into the net off the post, giving the Gunners a well-deserved lead.

The second half saw Arsenal continue to assert their dominance, threatening to extend their advantage. However, Wolves managed to hold firm and keep them at bay, staying in the game.

But in the dying moments of added time, Arsenal finally broke through for a second time. Martin Odegaard calmly rolled the ball into the net from a tight angle, sealing the victory for his side.

With this result, Arsenal leapfrogged Manchester City to claim the top spot in the league, albeit temporarily, as Pep Guardiola’s team still have a game in hand.

The Gunners will now have the opportunity to extend their lead when they face Chelsea on Tuesday. The match will be broadcast live on TNT Sports and discovery+.
