West Ham fans were seen leaving the stadium in the 34th minute of the first half. West Ham was defeated 2-5 in the 2024-2025 English Premier League (EPL) against Arsenal at London Stadium in London on the 1st (Korea time).
However, all seven goals were scored in the first half, making headlines. Arsenal led 4-0 early with Gabriel Magalyangis in the 10th minute, Leandro Trossar in the 27th minute and Martin 외degaard in the 34th minute, followed by Kai Havertz in the 36th minute.
West Ham, on the other hand, failed to score a single decent shot while Arsenal scored four. Fans also lost their cheering power.
Some fans began to leave the stadium in the 34th minute of the first half. After the fourth goal, the departure procession got bigger. I thought the game was actually over.
Still, there was a surprise turnaround for West Ham. Aaron Wan-Bissaka scored a comeback goal in the 38th minute of the first half. Two minutes later, Emerson Palmieri scored an additional goal with a free kick. But that was the end of the resistance.
Arsenal scored their fifth goal with Bukayo Saka's penalty in extra time in the first half. Saka, who assisted Magalyangis and Trossar's goals, scored one goal and two assists. Trossar, who helped Havertz score, also played his part with one goal and one go.
Arsenal rose to second place with 25 points (7 wins, 4 draws and 2 losses). With 15 points, West Ham (4 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses) remained in 14th place.
This is the fourth time in Premier League history that seven goals have been scored in the first half. Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta said "That was a great half-hourIt was a game that showed how much the team wanted, purpose, and determination. In particular, it is the team's level to score the first three goals in a great different way. "I scored the fourth goal in a really good way, but after that we had a lull with the individual capabilities of the opponent."
And I could feel that the energy changed after "4-2. So I think it's great to score my fifth goal. Everything calmed down and we were able to play a very different game that was much more suitable for us"Joyed.
Arsenal finished the game comfortably, giving Magalyangis a break in the second half.
