Gabriel Magalhaes sends three-word message to Arsenal fans following victory vs Wolves

Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalhaes has sent fans a three-word message following their 2-1 victory against Wolves.

The Gunners defeated Bruno Lage's men 1-0 a fortnight ago and were hoping to complete the double over their top-four rivals but they got off to the worst possible start following a huge mistake from Gabriel.

The Brazilian centre-half delivered a poor back pass to Aaron Ramsdale before Hwang Hee-chan capitalised and tapped the ball into the empty net.

Mikel Arteta's side struggled to break down the west Midlands side before club-record signing Nicolas Pepe came off the bench to score the equaliser following a pin-point Eddie Nketiah cutback.

Wolves goalkeeper Jose Sa then palmed the ball into his own net after a strong shot from Alexandre Lacazette deep into injury time, handing the north Londoners all three points as they now sit just one point behind fourth-placed Manchester United, who have played two more league fixtures.

After the match, the aforementioned Gabriel took to social media to show his relief at the victory.

His tweet read: "WHAT A TEAM", accompanied by a crying emoji, as well as a heart.

The Gunners were scheduled to take on Liverpool at the Emirates Stadium this weekend but the Reds will be taking part in the final of the Carabao Cup against Chelsea instead.

Therefore, Arteta and Co will need to wait until the following weekend before they play again as they travel to Vicarage Road to take on Roy Hodgson's Watford.
