Arsene Wenger praises striker Olivier Giroud following his match-winning role in Arsenal's 2-1 victory over Newcastle United.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger was full of praise for his side, and match-winner Olivier Giroud in particular, after they beat Newcastle United today.

The French striker scored twice in four minutes as Arsenal managed to withstand a second-half fightback from Newcastle to win 2-1 at St James' Park.

"He is like every striker," Wenger told BBC Sport. "He wants to score goals and the confidence comes from scoring goals, it's a vicious circle. He is a fighter and has improved technically.

"We want to finish as high as we can, we have 60 points with eight games to go. If you look at the points we have taken in the last three months, it has been outstanding. So we just want to win and win and win."

Arsenal's next match is a crucial fixture at home against top-four rival Liverpool after the international break.
