Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Unai Emery's six changes to the side that beat Leicester in their last game paid off when Danny Welbeck capitalised on a defensive error in the 77th minute and finished well to hand Arsenal all three points in their top-of-the-table Europa League clash against Sporting CP.
Granit Xhaka started at left-back for the injury stricken Gunners, but the defence was rarely tested by Sporting's forwards.
Clear chances for either side were few and far between, but that won't trouble Arsenal, who won their 11th game in a row in all competitions and hold a commanding lead in Group E.
