Yossi Benayoun helped Arsenal clinch automatic qualification for next season’s Champions League with a goal in the crucial 3-2 victory over West Bromwich Albion at the Hawthorns.

The Israel captain completed a successful loan spell from Chelsea with goals in Arsenal’s last two games to help them pip Spurs to third place.

Benayoun said: “What an amazing way to finish the season. Victory, third place and I scored again.

“I want to thank all the Arsenal fans and management who have supported me throughout the season and given me a chance to be part of a wonderful club.”
