In the 81st minute of today’s marquee Premier League encounter between West Ham and Arsenal, the Gunners landed a late equaliser to salvage a point, despite being 3-0 down at one point.
Thomas Partey picked out Martin Odegaard in the final third, the Real Madrid loanee drove a little before slipping the ball out wide to Nicolas Pepe.
Pepe charged onto the ball and floated a first-time cross into the box, Lacazette was positioned perfectly between Craig Dawson and Vladimir Coufal, leaving the ace to head in from close range.
Lacazette has been clinical today, the Frenchman was the one player to offer the Gunners hope after they fell 3-0 down earlier, with a lovely finish to pull a goal back in the first-half.

Alexandre Lacazette has made a much bigger impact for the Gunners than captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang lately, he’s shown Mikel Arteta that he deserves to lead the line.
