Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has praised his side for a “resilient” and “focused” performance in their 2-0 victory over Hull City this afternoon.
A brace from Alexis Sanchez handed the Gunners all three points at the Emirates, ending a two-game losing streak and moving them up to third in the Premier League table.
“I felt we were resilient, focused It was not easy against a good side,” Wenger told Sky Sports News afterwards. “There was an edgy atmosphere but as a player you have to cope with that.”
Asked if there was an element of good fortune at play after Sanchez’s first goal was allowed to stand despite a handball, he replied: “Maybe. Sorry for that but I cannot influence that.
“Our job is not to focus too much on what is said and focus on what we are responsible for – the performance on the pitch.”
