However, after a lengthy VAR review, the goal was disallowed for a foul in the buildup on Arsenal keeper David Raya, leaving the hosts furious and their survival hopes hanging in the balance.\n\nDespite the victory, Arsenal were made to work hard throughout. Trossard struck the woodwork early, while West Ham goalkeeper Mads Hermansen produced several key saves to keep the visitors at bay. William Saliba also saw a close-range effort cleared off the line as Arsenal dominated early chances.\n\n> We need to change the rules for set pieces.\n>\n> The way Arsenal scored most of their goals from set pieces this year should not be allowed.\n>\n> I grew up with Chelsea scoring a lot from corners without blocking the goalkeeper from reaching the ball.\n>\n> However, not a single Arsenal goal… pic.twitter.com/gYQNDXv4rC\n>\n> — FUT POLICE LEAKS (@FutPoliceLeaks) May 10, 2026\n\n\n\n\nWest Ham grew into the match and came close themselves, with Raya making a vital stop to deny Mateus Fernandes in the second half. However, their inability to convert chances proved costly.\n\nThe match also saw Arsenal forced into defensive reshuffles after Ben White went off injured, with Mikel Arteta adjusting his backline in a tense second half.\n\n> 🗣️ \"If you want to win big things there are moments, and that is a big moment.\"\n>\n> Mikel Arteta reacts to today's crucial 1-0 victory over West Ham!#beINPL #WHUARS #Arsenal pic.twitter.com/OVuh1sSXCI\n>\n> — beIN SPORTS (@beINSPORTS_EN) May 10, 2026\n\n\n\n\nIn the end, Arsenal’s persistence paid off, and Trossard’s decisive finish ensured they leave London with three crucial points in a high-stakes encounter that could prove pivotal in the title race.\n\nThe post Late strike of Trossard secure win for Arsenal against West Ham appeared first on HUM News English.",
