Arsenal attacker Leandro Trossard heaped praise on Martin Odegaard following the club’s 1-0 Premier League win over West Ham United at the London Stadium.
The Gunners secured a slender victory over the Hammers on the road earlier today. Trossard broke the deadlock after a fine assist from Odegaard, but there was more controversy to follow.
The Hammers believed they had scored the equaliser deep into stoppage time, but the goal was chalked off for a clear and evident foul on David Raya on two separate occasions.
Speaking after the game, Trossard credited Odegaard for creating the chance, which he converted, he said: “It’s an amazing run from Martin [Odegaard]. He does so well to get the ball to me and then just in that moment.”
The Gunners have moved five points clear of Manchester City at the top of the standings with the result. They are now just two wins away from lifting a long-awaited English title.
