Wolves 0-1 Arsenal: Premier League – live reaction!

LIVE – Updated at 21:58

Gabriel netted the vital goal but Arsenal had to work for their win after Gabriel Martinelli was sent off.

Lacazette’s verdict: “It means a lot of r us. We really wanted to win this game. We were disappointed after Burnley so we used the break to work a lot. Today we showed a lot of good things for the rest of the season ... I’m proud of my team because we handled it well .. Everyone at the back did their job.”

It wasn’t pretty but that’s a precious win for Arsenal.

But Gabriel’s scrappy first-half goal was enough to clinch victory. They’re up to fifth in the league, with two games in hand on fourth-placed West Ham!
