Arsenal 0-1 West Ham: Player ratings as Bowen hands Gunners frustrating defeat
Publish : Saturday, 2025-02-22 ( Europe/London )
Player ratings from Arsenal’s 1-0 defeat to West Ham United in the Premier League.
Arsenal stumbled in the Premier League title race on Saturday afternoon as they were beaten 1-0 by West Ham United at the Emirates Stadium.
Arsenal were desperate to take advantage of Liverpool dropping points at Aston Villa midweek but found themselves behind entering half-time. Jarrod Bowen headed the Irons in front just moments before the break following some smart work by Aaron Wan-Bissaka down the right flank.
The Gunners frantically sought an equaliser after half-time but their task was made impossible by the dismissal of Myles Lewis-Skelly with 20 minutes to spare. The substitute was initially awarded a yellow card for hauling Mohammed Kudus down as last man on the halfway line, but his punishment was upgraded to a red after VAR intervention.
