Arsenal has cemented their title credentials in the Premier League following a 4-1 victory over Norwich City at home in the Emirates Stadium on Saturday.

Although Arsene Wenger's side had to face a difficult period after Mathieu Flamini was forced off through injury, a strong partnership combination of Mesut Ozil and Santi Cazorla, supported by Aaron Ramsey and Jack Wilshere helped the side rally back and retain possession of the game with ease.

According to the Mirror, Wilshere scored the first goal against Norwich in the 18th minute, and although the side was thrown for a bit by Flamini's injury late in the first half, they soon rallied back with two goals from Ozil and a single from Ramsey in the second half.

 

The report mentioned that Norwich however, dominated Arsenal following Flamini's injury till the break, and was rewarded with a goal twenty minutes from time by Jonathan Howson, who arrived late to drill a poor clearance into the bottom corner.
