Arsenal on Brink of Title as VAR Overturns West Ham’s Last-Gasp Equaliser

Arsenal moved a step closer to their first Premier League crown in years with a hard-fought 1–0 win over West Ham at the London Stadium. Leandro Trossard broke his scoring drought with a crucial second-half strike that settled a tight contest. West Ham pressed for an equaliser in the closing stages and thought they had snatched a stoppage-time leveller through Callum Wilson. But VAR intervened after spotting a foul on goalkeeper David Raya during the buildup and the referee disallowed the goal. The decision sparked strong reactions from West Ham’s players and fans, with both teams aware of what was at stake. Arsenal now need just two more victories from their remaining fixtures, while West Ham must fight on to avoid the relegation drop.
