Alexandre Lacazette Leads Arsenal to Nervy Win vs. Huddersfield

Arsenal won their first away match in the Premier League since November on Saturday as they beat Huddersfield Town 2-1 at the John Smith's Stadium.

Alex Iwobi broke the deadlock in the 16th minute to hand Arsenal a deserved early lead when he volleyed in Sead Kolasinac's cross via a deflection off Terence Kongolo.

The Terriers were unfortunate not to be awarded a penalty 10 minutes later as they responded well to going behind, when Laurent Koscielny blocked Jason Puncheon's shot with his arm.

Alexandre Lacazette doubled Arsenal's lead against the run of play a minute before the break when he turned home Ainsley Maitland-Niles' cross at the back post.
