    What's the story

    Arsenal scored two late goals to record a 2-1 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League in north London.

    With this, Arsenal have continued their push to be in the last four in England's top-tier.

    Wolves were ahead in the game for most of the night, courtesy of Hwang Hee-chan's early goal.

    However, they faltered in the second half and paid the price.

    Context

    Why does this story matter?

    According to Opta, this is the first time since 2018 when the Wolves have lost a game after scoring the opening goal in their domestic league.

    Their last such defeat came in November 2018 against Cardiff City 1-2.

    Riding on this win, Arsenal are on fifth spot with 45 points in the Premier League as they continue their push for a top four finish.

    Match

    How did the match pan out?

    Arsenal were chasing the game for 72 minutes following Hee-chan's opening goal (10th minute).

    Nicolas Pepe inspired Arsenal's comeback by scoring an equalizer in the 82nd minute.

    A six-minute stoppage time was added amid confusion over Wolves sub.

    Alexandre Lacazette shot from a narrow angle in the 95th minute, and after a deflection from Jose Sa, Arsenal were awarded another goal.

    Standings

    Arsenal's situation in Premier League

    Following Friday's result, Arsenal have moved to the fifth spot on the Premier League table.

    They have accumulated 45 points from 24 games (W14 D3 L7).

    Arsenal are now just one point behind fourth-placed Manchester United with two games in hand.

    Wolves are static at the seventh position.

    They have played 25 games this season, winning 12, and losing nine while drawing four games.

    Information

    The winning goal for Arsenal

    As per Opta, Sa's own goal (94:56) was the Gunners' latest winning goal in their domestic league in the last five years. Alexis Sánchez had notched up a penalty for Arsenal against Burnley in the 97th minute in January 2017.
