The game was a hard-fought contest, particularly for Arsenal, who faced a stubborn Wolves side. The first half was quiet and ended scoreless.

1-1 Wolves (91st minute): Just as Arsenal looked set to win, Wolves found a late equaliser when Tolu Arokodare nodded the ball past David Raya, stunning the home crowd.
2-1 Arsenal (94th minute): Deep into second-half stoppage time, Arsenal snatched all three points. A delivery from Bukayo Saka was deflected into the net by Wolves defender Yerson Mosquera, resulting in the second own goal for Wolves and securing a vital 2-1 victory for Arsenal.
The win ensured Arsenal maintained their position at the top of the Premier League table. The Gunners travel to Everton next in the league.
