Arsenal asserted their dominance in the English Premier League once again with a commanding 2-0 triumph over Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux on Saturday.
Late strikes from Leandro Trossard and Martin Odegaard in each half secured the crucial victory for Mikel Arteta’s side.
The win propelled Arsenal to the summit of the league table, edging one point ahead of second-placed Manchester City, who secured a narrow 1-0 win against Chelsea in an FA Cup semifinal clash.
The victory came as a much-needed relief for Arsenal, following a turbulent week marred by a setback in the title race against Aston Villa and a disappointing exit from the Champions League at the hands of Bayern Munich.
Despite City holding a game in hand over the London outfit, Arsenal's resilient performance serves as a morale booster, alleviating concerns after recent setbacks.

Arsenal seized the lead just before halftime as Trossard unleashed a powerful right-footed strike, finding the top corner after a precision shot from inside the box, seemingly slicing the ball but placing it impeccably.
The visitors sealed the deal deep into stoppage time when Odegaard, displaying finesse, converted from a narrow angle on the right after his initial attempt was saved.
Wolverhampton Wanderers had their moments, with Joao Gomes coming close to finding the net earlier, only to be denied by Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya's heroic save, deflecting the shot onto the post.
Gary O’Neil's side continues to struggle, failing to secure a win in their last six outings across all competitions.
