Bukayo Saka's two brilliant right‑wing crosses forced late errors and handed Arsenal a 2-1 win over Wolverhampton at the Emirates, extending Arsenal's home run to nine straight wins in all competitions.Viktor Gyökeres started but was replaced by Gabriel Jesus; Taiwo Arokodare's stoppage‑time equaliser briefly looked to have salvaged a point before Yerson Mosquera's stoppage‑time own goal off Saka's cross decided the match, referee Robert Jones officiated and Arsenal sit five points clear of Manchester City while Wolverhampton remain bottom with two points from 16 games.
