Lacazette 4/10 as Arsenal lose to late Leicester goal by Vardy

A disappointing 1-0 defeat for Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium means that visitors Leicester City, rather than the hosts, climb into the top four of the Premier League.

Both teams started the evening on nine points and there was little to choose between them in a game broadly devoid of quality. However, it was Leicester that seemingly came to life in the last 20 minutes, winning at Arsenal for the first time since 1973 thanks to a header from substitute Jamie Vardy.

Arsenal started the brighter of the two sides and had enough chances to take the lead before the break, Alexander Lacazette squandering several opportunities and even having a goal disallowed after several of his teammates were adjudged to have been offside.
