EPL: Swansea stun Arsenal

Swansea City has claimed a 3-1 victory over Arsenal at the Liberty Stadium to move out of the Premier League relegation zone.
The Swans recovered from a goal down for a deserved win on home soil, as their revival under new boss Carlos Carvalhal – now four wins and three draws in eight outings under the Portuguese – gathered pace.
Having looked like a weak link for large parts of the first half Alexandre Lacazette set up Alex Iwobi with a nice first-time pass, which the Nigerian forward struck well only to be denied by Lukasz Fabianski in the Swansea goal.
Arsenal were in front three minutes later, however, with Mesut Ozil given too much time on the ball to loft it over the backline and into the path of Nacho Monreal, who still had work to do when tucking home his fourth goal of the campaign with a half-volley at the back post.
The Gunners’ lead lasted less than two minutes, with Mawson sliding the ball clean through for Clucas to tuck past Petr Cech and restore parity in South Wales.
Cech’s howler gifted the goal to Ayew, who helped the ball over the line after Arsenal’s experienced keeper miscued a pacey back-pass from Shkodran Mustafi.
New signing Henrikh Mkhitaryan had been on the field for just a couple of minutes at the time of that second goal, and even his introduction could not really turn the flow of the game.
Both Mustafi and Cech were guilty of further mistakes, with the former heading the ball into the path of Dyer to drag the ball into the side-netting with plenty of the goal to aim for.
Olivier Giroud was also introduced from the bench in the final 15 minutes, but even with their big-name attackers on the field the visitors struggled for creativity.
Clucas then sealed the points late on when blasting past Cech from close range for a second time after star man Ayew charged into the box, giving Swansea rare back-to-back league wins.
