Drozd defender Craig Dawson's double helped West Brom to take three points in the Premier League home game against Arsenal (3-1).

Tony Pulis made two substitutions in the starting lineup compared to the defeat from Everton (0: 3) a week ago - from the first minutes on the field went Chris Brant and Salomon Rondon, leaving in reserve Claudio Jacob and Hala Robson-Kahnu.

Arsene Wenger decided to start the game with Danny Welbeck on the edge of the attack and Nacho Montreal on the left in defense, having seated Olivier Giroux and Kiran Gibbs. Mesut Ozil did not come to Hawthorns because of a hamstring injury.

West Bromwich from the first minute threatened the gate of Petr Cech, and on the 12th minute wards Pjulisa did what they are better than others - scored from the standard. Chadli gave the corner, and Craig Dawson ferried the ball into the goal with a header.

Nevertheless, Drozdy did not last long in the account. Already in three minutes, Jacques found his transfer to the undisguised Sanchez, who dealt a precise accurate strike - 1: 1.

After that, Arsenal seized the initiative, but at the end of the half lost its main goalkeeper Petr Cech, who received damage, coping with the blow Fletcher.

Arsenal continued to control the ball and at the beginning of the second half of the meeting, but West Bromwich again came forward in the 55th minute, when the replacement Robson-Kahn took advantage of the uncertain game of Ospiny.

Welbeck almost managed to level the score, but the striker struck the crossbar, and in the 75th minute Dawson formed a double, once again closing the pitch from the corner, which this time performed McClen.



Thus, the wards of Wenger lost the fourth of the last five Premier League matches and took the 5th position in the standings. West Bromwich remains in 8th place.
