What Gabriel Jesus did after Martin Odegaard scored during West Ham vs Arsenal

Arsenal got off to the perfect start during their Premier League clash against West Ham United.

The north Londoners went 1-0 up after just seven minutes through centre-forward Gabriel Jesus, with the Brazilian international converting a perfectly-weighted Ben White cutback from close range. Mikel Arteta's side then doubled their advantage just three minutes later.

Captain Martin Odegaard beautifully placed a volley past Hammers goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski from a Gabriel Martinelli cross. However, eagle-eyed Arsenal fans will have noticed Jesus half-heartedly showing his frustrations despite his side going 2-0 up.

The former Manchester City frontman wanted Odegaard to tee him in for an easy tap-in instead of shooting, pointing to his feet even after the ball had hit the back of the net. If the Gunners can hold onto their lead, they will restore their six-point lead at the top of the Premier League table.

Of course, second-placed City will have a game in hand on their title rivals, who they welcome to the Etihad Stadium later this month.
