‘How’s that for a celebration?’ – Alexandre Lacazette aims cheeky dig at Wolves after last-gasp Arsenal winner

ALEXANDRE LACAZETTE aimed a cheeky dig at Wolves after Arsenal grabbed a priceless last-gasp victory over the East Midlands club.

The two sides were meeting for the second time in quick succession, after the Gunners won 1-0 at Molineux a fortnight ago.

After that clash Ruben Neves slammed Arsenal's celebrations, saying: "We saw the way they celebrated the win and that shows the level we are.

“I didn't see Arsenal celebrating like this in the past 10 years - it was like they won the league."

After his wayward shot was flapped into the net by Jose Sa, Lacazette couldn't resist taking a pop at Neves and Co.

The Frenchman, 30, posted pictures of his wild celebrations alongside the message: "We believed until the last second!

"So proud of my team, the atmosphere was unreal tonight!! 🔥🔥
How's that for a celebration 😉😘♣️❤️"

Wolves had taken a 10th-minute lead at the Emirates, when Hwang Hee-chan profited on Gabriel's poor back pass, skipping past Aaron Ramsdale and converting into the unguarded net.

Mikel Arteta's men took a long time to get back into the game, but finally levelled through substitute Nicolas Pepe.

The Ivorian's goal capped off a dream day, after his wife Fanny gave birth just hours earlier.

Lacazette then sent the Emirates into delirium with his late strike.

The win sees Arsenal climb to fifth, just one point behind Manchester United with two games in hand.
