There was a big upset in the Premier League, with Arsenal losing 0-2 at home to West Ham
Arsenal lost 2-0 to West Ham and were disappointed by a penalty from Ben Lahma in what was their first away defeat. This series of ups and downs of the competition is exciting, and the plot is full of ups and downs.
On 13 minutes, a cross from the left of West Ham was cleared by Bowen and Soucek made up for it, and although there was some controversy, VAR decided that the goal was correct and Arsenal led 1-0. Arsenal led 2-0 and in the 55th minute, Prowse took a free kick from the left, and Mav. Ropanos scored a goal from the spot. At the end of the first half, the referee gave Emerson a penalty opportunity, but Benrahma's penalty was heroically saved by Raya and Rice ended the game 2-0.
This is the most important game of the season in 19 rounds and Arsenal will face West Ham, who currently sit sixth in the table. Prior to that, Arsenal had picked up 40 points, 12-4, 3-0, 33 ahead of West Ham. Arsenal were in good spirits before the game, but ended up losing 2-0 to their opponents for their first defeat in the league.
In the first half, the situation on the field was very intense, and the two teams quickly switched between attack and defense, winning the applause of the audience. However, it was West Ham who were the first to emerge victorious. In the thirteenth minute, although a foul was ruled out on a cross by Bowen, Soucek's shot gave Arsenal a 1-0 lead. In the second half, Arsenal started to attack, but could not do anything in front of a heavily defended West Ham defence. In the 55th minute, Arsenal were once again headed in by Mavropanos, 2-0 down, and the situation became even worse.
Arsenal were given a good moment to take a penalty at half-time, but Benrahma's shot was denied by Raya to make it 2-0. The defeat dropped Arsenal to second place in the league and stretched two points away from the leaders. It was also Arsenal's first league game of the season to lose, which was a big blow to their morale and self-confidence.
For Arsenal to recover from defeat as quickly as possible, all they have to do is make some changes in attack and strengthen their defence. Although we lost, the fighting spirit of our team is worthy of respect. All in all, it was a very entertaining battle, and although Arsenal were unable to win the victory, the tense and tense confrontation was unforgettable.
