Arsenal Delay Reds' Crowning

Gunners bring form to Ipswich, who are almost sure to return to the second tier

- 

LONDON - Arsenal made Liverpool wait to be crowned English Premier League champions as Leandro Trossard inspired a 4-0 win that pushed Ipswich Town to the brink of relegation on April 20.

Mikel Arteta's side cruised to their first victory in three league games thanks to Trossard's double and goals from Gabriel Martinelli and Ethan Nwaneri at Portman Road.

Trossard told Sky Sports: "I think it was a great game overall. We had a lot of chances and in the end scored four.

"It is important for ourselves. We don't need to look at them (Liverpool), we just have to keep going like this and take it game by game.

"We are there for a reason, we have been doing very well in the Champions League. We have to keep believing."

Ipswich played more than half the match with 10 men after Leif Davis was sent off for a crude lunge on Bukayo Saka on 32 minutes.

Said Arteta: "The first 35 minutes were exceptional. We scored two and could have scored three or four. After the sending off, the game changed."

Second-placed Arsenal are 10 points behind leaders Liverpool, who need six points from their remaining six games to be crowned English champions for a record-equalling 20th time.
