Arsenal needed a late goal and an even later, dramatic VAR call to stay in control of the Premier League title race on Sunday.
A 1-0 win over relegation-threatened West Ham restored Arsenal’s five-point lead over second-place Manchester City and came with a huge dose of controversy.
Leading thanks to Leandro Trossard’s 83rd-minute goal, Arsenal looked like it would be throwing away two crucial points — and losing its slim advantage in the title race — when West Ham substitute Callum Wilson lashed a shot over the line at a corner in the fifth minute of stoppage time.
