LONDON -- Arsenal maintained their outside chance of qualifying for the Champions League thanks to Alexis Sanchez's two close-range goals but they took longer than expected to find a way past Sunderland's outstanding goalkeeper Jordan Pickford (who made 11 saves) and complete a 2-0 win.
On a rainy evening at the Emirates, this game felt distinctly "end of season" despite the fact that Arsenal still have something to play for.
