Premier League: West Bromwich Albion Relegated After Losing To Arsenal 3-1

Premier League: West Brom were relegated after losing 3-1 to Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.

West Bromwich Albion were relegated after losing to Arsenal 3-1. West Brom arrived at the Emirates Stadium needing a win to maintain their slim hopes of beating the drop. But they were 2-0 down just past the half-hour mark thanks to well-taken goals from Emile Smith Rowe and Nicolas Pepe. Matheus Pereira pulled one back in the 67th minute after running the length of the Arsenal half. But Willian's 90th-minute free-kick, his first goal for Arsenal, confirmed West Brom's fate one season after they were promoted. Defeat meant Baggies boss Sam Allardyce had suffered the first Premier League relegation of his managerial career. "It's not sunk in yet, but I'm sure I'll wake up tomorrow and realise the situation," Allardyce told BT Sport.
