First-half goals from Alexandre Lacazette and Laurent Koscielny were enough for all three points as the Gunners picked up a vital win.

After the match, Sead Kolasinac was asked what he thought was key to the victory.

“I think our aggression – we were very strong in the duels and had two really good chances in the first 10 minutes,” Kolasinac said after the game.

“We didn’t take them, and that pushed us on further, along with the fans’ support. We really deserved to go in front and what was so important was that we scored the second before half-time too.

“That brought us stability, and then in the second half we had to defend, which we did. I’m pleased we kept a clean sheet too and that, together with the three points, made it a very satisfying evening.”
