WOLVERHAMPTON, England (AP) — Arsenal moved back to the top of the English Premier League by beating

WOLVERHAMPTON, England (AP) — Arsenal moved back to the top of the English Premier League by beating Wolverhampton Wanderers 2-0 at Molineux on Saturday.

Late goals in each half by Leandro Trossard and Martin Odegaard secured the win.

Mikel Arteta’s team rose one point ahead of second-placed Manchester City, which beat Chelsea 1-0 in an FA Cup semifinal.

Victory ended a painful week for Arsenal, which lost ground in the title race after defeat at home to Aston Villa and was then knocked out of the Champions League by Bayern Munich.

City has a game in hand on the London side, but the win should settle nerves after those recent setbacks.

Arsenal went ahead in the 45th minute when Trossard lashed a right-foot shot off the post and into the top corner from just inside the box. Replays appeared to show he sliced his first-time effort, but he could hardly have placed it better.
