West Ham 3 Arsenal 1: Sloppy Gunners dumped out of Carabao Cup as inspired Hammers march on to quarter-finals
ARSENAL crashed out of the Carabao Cup following a humiliating defeat at West Ham.
Mikel Arteta made several changes to the side that thrashed Sheffield United and it backfired after just 14 minutes as Ben White headed into his own net.

Declan Rice was dropped from the starting line-up against his former club and only brought on once the Gunners were 3-0 down.
West Ham edged a narrow first half but came out all guns blazing after half-time with Mohammed Kudus finishing well to double the Irons’ lead.
And David Moyes’ side were not finished well as Jarrod Bowen’s volley beat Aaron Ramsdale thanks to a slight deflection.
A well-worked move resulted in Martin Odegaard finding the bottom corner with a pinpoint finish but it was too little too late for Mikel Arteta’s side.
