Martin Odegaard and Leandro Trossard praised in 6-0 win
The fourth Arsenal goal of the game, it was arguably the moment that killed all of West Ham’s hope of getting anything back from this game.
And speaking on BBC Radio Five Live, pundit Michael Brown was full of praise for Odegaard and Trossard, who both stole the former Tottenham midfielder’s breath away.
Indeed, it was a moment of pure quality from the Arsenal duo, and Brown was full of praise for Odegaard and Trossard for what was an incredible goal.
The pundit said: “You talk about clinical, world-class moves from a side, Odegaard starts that and Trossard does brilliantly, bends it and curls it, Areola pushes it into the top corner.”
