Pep Guardiola’s team had cut the Londoners’ lead to three points after beating Leicester 3-1 on Saturday. But there was little sign of Arsenal feeling the pressure in the early stages on Sunday, taking the lead in the seventh minute through Jesus. Odegaard added a second in the 10th.West Ham was handed a route back into the game when Gabriel fouled ...
