Arsenal's Brazilian forward Gabriel Martinelli scored a fine goal to earn a 1-0 win at Leicester City on Saturday, giving them a five-point lead at the top of the Premier League.
"We create more belief in and around the club. I had full faith that the players could do it ," Arsenal coach Mikel Arteta said.
With the title race twisting and turning each week, Arsenal travelled north to Leicester fully anticipating a tough match against a side who thrashed Tottenham Hotspur 4-1 in their previous home game. The visitors did not have to overly exert themselves to get the job done. Trossard was unlucky in the first half -- he will not hit many better strikes all season.
The result could have been more comfortable, with Arsenal having the ball in the net again only for it to be ruled out for offside, but they had no trouble seeing out the victory to keep them on course for a first league title in 19 years.
