Arsenal battled to a hard-fought 1-0 victory against Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux Stadium in today’s Premier League action.
The decisive goal came from Riccardo Calafiori, who delivered a crucial strike to keep the Gunners’ title hopes alive.
However, the match was marred by controversy. In the 43rd minute, 18-year-old Arsenal midfielder Myles Lewis-Skelly was shown a straight red card for a deliberate trip on Wolves’ Matt Doherty.
The incident, which occurred nearly 90 yards from Wolves’ goal, sparked debate as many expected a yellow card.
After a VAR review, the decision was upheld, leaving Arsenal to play the remainder of the match with ten men.
Elsewhere, Everton secured a gritty 1-0 win over Brighton & Hove Albion at the American Express Community Stadium.
Iliman Ndiaye’s calmly taken penalty proved to be the difference in a match where Nathan Patterson, Ashley Young, and James Garner played pivotal roles for the Toffees.
These results carry significant weight for the Premier League standings, with Arsenal staying firmly in the title race and Everton picking up valuable points in their campaign.
