Alex Song's late header gave Premier League title chasers Arsenal
a narrow victory over West Ham to deny the bottom club a deserved
point at Emirates Stadium.
Robert Green, in front of watching England manager Fabio Capello,
had pulled off a string of fine saves to keep the Gunners at bay.
However, with just two minutes left, Song dived to head home Gael
Clichy's cross as Arsene Wenger's improving side kept up the pressure
on leaders Chelsea.
Arsenal had plenty of momentum going into this afternoon's game
after following up impressive Champions League performances with
victory at Manchester City and marching into the quarter-finals
of the Carling Cup.
