Arsenal fc’s dismal home form continued on Sunday night, 30th November, as Pedro Neto and Daniel Podence ensured Wolves left the Emirates with a 2-1 win.
Wolves forward Raul Jimenez was taken to hospital after suffering what appeared a serious head injury.
Jimenez was left unconscious following a clash of heads with David Luiz inside the opening minutes at the Emirates, leading to a 10-minute stoppage.
Nevertheless, Wolves were never deterred by the early loss of their talismanic striker to win at Arsenal for the first time since 1979.
Poor defending allowed Neto to fire in the rebound from an Adama Traore cross in the 27th minute, but the Gunners levelled from a rare first-half attack when Gabriel nodded in Willian’s corner shortly after in the 30th.
Brilliant individual play from Podence restored the visitors’ lead before the break in the 42nd minute, and despite an improved second-half performance from Arsenal, they fell to their third home defeat in a row.
