West Bromwich Albion have been relegated to the Premier League after losing 3-1 to Arsenal on Sunday.

The Baggies were virtually down before kick-off but have now confirmed they will play in the Championship next season as they sit 10 points from safety with three games remaining.

Albion started promisingly but it was Arsenal who broke the deadlock after 28 minutes when Emile Smith Rowe volleyed Bukayo Saka's cross.

Nicolas Pepe doubled the lead six minutes later with a superb curled strike into the top corner.

Matheus Pereira pulled one back for West Brom halfway through the second-half, only for Willian to seal victory for the hosts with a last minute free kick.

The result means Arsenal, who were knocked out of the Europa League last week, still have a chance of playing European football next season.

"We needed that win," Gunners boss Mikel Arteta said after the game. "It has been a while since we won at home. We scored three fantastic goals and we had some great spells in the game. When we conceded the goal we did look nervy.

"We knew the necessity to win the game. They scored out of nothing and then throw everything at you, they know the situation they are in and we struggled to play that kind of game.

"We scored three fantastic goals but we missed some big chances too.

"Europe is a completely different game, different context. There were things we could have done much better.

"Going forwards we know Saka is a threat, he gives you something unique. He adapted. We believed we were going to attack against them and he gave us a lot of joy.

"We will try to win every match and see where we finish. The only thing we can do is win our games."
