Santi Cazorla celebrates after scoring for Arsenal
BBC
Santi Cazorla hit Arsenal’s 50th league goal of the season to earn Arsene Wenger’s 10 men a victory which lifted them to fifth spot in the table.
The Spanish forward fired through a sea of Sunderland legs after good work by Theo Walcott, before Carl Jenkinson was sent off for two bookable offences, reports the BBC.
Arsenal were forced to endure some nervous moments; Steven Fletcher and Titus Bramble both wasting chances.
Walcott hit the post for Arsenal, who lost Jack Wilshere to injury.
And at Stamford Bridge, Frank Lampard moved to within four goals of becoming Chelsea’s all-time leading scorer to help his side record back-to-back Premier League home wins for the first time since October.
This was not a vintage Chelsea display, but Lampard’s late strike helped secure a vital victory for Rafael Benitez.
Goals from Ramires and Eden Hazard had put Chelsea in control, only for Shaun Maloney to pull a goal back for Wigan.
Lampard hit back before substitute Marko Marin headed in Chelsea’s fourth.
