Wenger delighted with 'vital' Arsenal response at Chelsea

Arsene Wenger praised Arsenal for responding to their hammering at Liverpool with a 0-0 draw away to Chelsea on Sunday.

The Gunners ended a run of five defeats in a row at Stamford Bridge in the Premier League by claiming a point against the champions, who had David Luiz sent off in the closing stages.

Arsenal were good value for the result and had the better chances to win the match, with Alexandre Lacazette missing an open goal after Aaron Ramsey hit the post, and Shkodran Mustafi seeing a header ruled out for offside.

Wenger was delighted to see a renewed determination in the team compared to their last match away from home, in which they lost 4-0 to Liverpool at Anfield.
